If we have details of the families involved, then more can be found under Stowupland surnames, but if all we have is a name and a connection with Stowupland then here is the place to look.

This group of photos came from the Catchpole archives, but apart from a penciled note on the back of this photo for June 1896 we have no other details. However it is possible it is the wedding of  Margaret Catchpole’s parents, Charles and Emma.
