Am trying to find out any info on Zachariah Giles who died in Croydon in 1869 aged 63.  On Census returns his place of birth was given as "Chelton Wilts".  He married Honor Stevens at Ramsbury on 6 Nov 1824, 
 
All the 11 children I have found say they were born in Croydon.  I am descended from their 8th known child,  Harriett Maria (b,  about 1844 d. 1884),

My Father's family originated from Chilton Foliat, the earliest member being a Hugh Cowley back in the 1500's.

My G/G/Grandparents William and Anne Cowley ( nee Cook ) lived in Chilton all their married life, and brought up 10 Children.

But there is a mystery surrounding them. Anne died in 1864,and is buried in the Chuchyard, as are several members of the family. Her Son Richard has a Headstone.

But I can find no record of Williams death. Nor is he buried in Chilton.

The reason for my message would be to ask if anyone could help me in my search. Possibly someone would know where he might have died if he'd been too ill to be cared for at home. The date would be between 1841-1851.

I'd be grateful for any help, as I've tried Death records, and ordered 2 Certificates, which proved to be the wrong person.
