Faringdon , Berks and the Cambray surname

[double-trouble]

I've been looking into a second marriage of William Sheard to Mary Cambray on 14th September 1797 at Faringdon , Berks . This date was given to me previously and they lived their lives in Oxford where William had a grocers business .


The Berkshire FHS shows a possible bp . for Mary as 1774 All Saints . Also a pos . sister Sarah bp . 1772 All Saints and pos . a brother Thomas brd . 1771 All Saints .
There is also a mrg . shown ( no named bride found ) for Thomas Cambray which could be their father in 1769 at All Saints .

Jacksons Oxford Journal ( 25 Jan 1817 ) also gives the death / obituary of Sarah Cambr (ey)  73 y
of Faringdon , Berks shown as the mother of Mrs Sheard of the High Street , Oxford .
I'm believing this may be the mother of Mary Cambray ( bp . 1774 ) and therefore wife of Thomas Cambray ( of mrg shown in 1769 Faringdon ) .

Does anyone have access to the actual dates for the years I ' ve given and support any of my info . shown .

Regards

Hi
Here's the baptisms (transcripts only I'm afraid)
Mary Cambray 18 Feb 1774 d of Thomas and Sarah
Sarah 24.4.1772 d of Thomas and Sarah (probably the burial 25.4.1773)
Can't find Thomas born c 1771. (probably died/buried 5.3.1771)

You have Thomas and Sarah's marriage.
Thomas buried Faringdon
1739-4.3.1816 residence Faringdon.

Sarah his wife gets everything for life.

Sarah Clark d of Thomas and Sarah Clark bapt Faringdon 15 Aug 1744. So the date of her burial does fit.
