Hmm. FreeBMD shows 5 Elizabeth Chudleys born 1848-1855, 4 of them in Devon and one in Cornwall (who'd have thought it was such a common name?), but no Elizabeth Susan.

You need to get the marriage certificate so you can try to identify her in censuses before marriage, by her father's name.

The likelihood that someone who actually knows something about her will happen on your post is ... oh, about nil. ;)

Have you got the marriage certificate?

A quick search for the names at

http://www.freebmd.org.uk

will get you the registration details for ordering it. It should state Thomas's occupation and Elizabeth's father's name, for a start on checking out the story.

How about the censuses? Is Thomas's occupation shown? Have you looked for Elizabeth before marriage?

Would love to hear from anyone who can shed more light on this ladies identity:
Elizabeth Susan Chudley b 1852 in Totness or Blackawton area, Devon
Apparentely (so the story goes) she was from a rich estate and went off with a stable hand- this may well not be true though
married Thomas Goode (b1860, St. Lukes/ Lambeth, London)
1882 in Islington- daughter Louisa Maud b1884
Hope someone can help!
thanks in anticipation
