Can anyone give me information on James Chapman or Clara Stroud, who married in the early 1880's? James was baptised 14/7/1861 in Upton cum Chalvey, son of Thomas and Mary (nee Ball).
Stroud seems to be a common name in the area and I'm having difficulty tracing Clara.

Hello JillClara was born about 1858 in Great Marlow, Bucks. Her mother was Fanny born 1826 in Marlow.On the 1861 Great Marlow census Fanny was already a widow with children Ellen born 1847, James born 1851, Sarah born 1856, Clara, and William H born 1860. All born in Marlow. Also in the household was Fanny's sister Edith Frith (unmarried).There is also a record for the death of a William Stroud in the december quarter of 1859 in the Wycombe district which includes Great Marlow.
Hope this helps.
