My great great grandfather was the vicar of Claines church in 1870. I am trying to find out any info: about him and his family. His name was William John Smallwood born 1841 in Birmingham. He married an Olliffe Rose Rumbold from Melbourne and at one time was the vicar of Naunton Beauchamp. I would love to know when he died /married and where he is buried if possible but absolutly any info: would be welcome.

Maybe?
Marriage Jun 1839 Hemel Hempstead 6 672
William Thomas Smallwood to possibly Eleanor Sophia Bown
with Bown possibly being a slightly corrupted version of Bozon? (Augusta Bozon was born Devonport according to 1851 and 1861)

IGI supports this suggestion, having the name actually recorded as BOZON (extracted entry):
WILLIAM THOMAS SMALLWOOD
ELEANOR SOPHIA BOZON
Married: 12 June 1839
Hemel Hempstead, Herts
