Since Clara was one of the younger children..and her oldest sibling was born 1882.the marriage should have taken place pre 1882......

1911Stoney St Madley Kingstone
William Hancox 1859 Hatfield Herefordshire.He is a Shepard.
Sarah 1860 Marlow Boston married 29 years = 1882
Elizabeth 1887
Albert 1900 he is on 1901 census name Handcocks.

10 Children born 2 died 4 Rooms.

Looks like the marriage in 1882 to sarah lewis could be the one.

1871 Hatfield D1>76
John Hancox
Ann
William ?? 1858 Your William I wonder.
Stephen.

William and Sarah also had son Stephen 1890 in 1911 he is with a family called Lewis,maybe a connection there??

Where did you get the name Marlow Boston, Shropshire?
Thanks

Added:
Sorry, just saw it from 1911.
Location not showing in googlemaps.

Added:
I do not know what it is, but it does not say Shropshire, and it is not Boston.

Added:
Possibly Marlow in Aston.
Marlow is in Shropshire, and Aston in Clun is about 4 miles away, also in Shropshire.

The full marriage certificate will give occupations and witnesses etc which could make it easier to pinpoint her.
