Reading from a census image - place of birth for a wife marrying into family - it's not that clear, so wondered if anyone knows of a place in England by this name? Thanks.

According to Multi-Map, there are three Claydon's - one in Gloucestershire, one in Oxfordshire and one in Suffolk. Kath. x

Thanks :O) Think it could be the Suffolk one - on the image it had what looks like 'Suf' written after it. Cheers folks .....

Crista, Thanks - yes, I am trying to narrow down her surname at present, so that will be my next step :O)
