Hi Pete,
if you havent pls look again at my updated post above, there some contradiction in your dates for Richard I think.
Also, I'm assuming you dont have Ancestry access ?.
If not, dont forget its free search is still very usefull giving lots of clues.
eg I've searched Census returns for Richard John Charles Wager born 1861 and residing around the Stroud Area. This gives a LOT of hits for CHARLES Wagers including one in the key 1891 year with spouse Mary. Of course these were very popular/common names so may not be our couple but...
I do think its worth trying to track Richard thro the census' and hopefully you'll find Mary on the way, also see what name he uses for himself if not Richard.
Cannot find her in the free 1911 Census, perhaps moved away from the area ?

VERY Sadly I havent got more time now (have to go and change my antifreeze yippee), but searching the laborious but effective LDS site maybe worth your while if you donm't have other census access. Takes a while to input the various parameter filters (I suggests place and year/decade of birth and nowt else), but can easily skim thro the various hits which do include variations of name spelling.
