Pyne family, North Somerset

[Jeremy Pyne]

I would be interested in any details of the Pyne families living in and around Weston In Gordano, Nailsea and Portishead from the late 1700s onwards. I have quite alot on the descendants of Joseph Pyne and Elizabeth. Joseph, a blacksmith, b around 1792. I have details of nine children, five of which seemed to take up the blacksmith trade, including my G.G.G.Grandfather, Frederick Pyne, b1809.
The Holy Grail is working out where Joseph came from. No obvious trace on the Weston registers. Happy to pass on details of this family to anyone with an interest.

Dear Jeremy,
Although I have no Pyne connections in Somerset, do you have any Pynes in Devon? My cousin's Grandmother was named Mary Pyne, and her father was named Alfred Pyne. He was born 1889 in Withycombe Raleigh near Exmouth.

I know it's a long shot, but thanks for reading!!
