Who was husband of Joan (Norys) Cloud (parents of immigrant Wm. Cloud)?

Joan Norys is said to have married 28 January 1615 (South Broom, Wiltshire) to Robert Cloud or William Cloud.  Their son was the immigrant  William Cloud (born 1621; died 1702, Delaware).

However, I have been unable to find the 1615 marriage record to determine whether Joan's husband was named Robert or William.

Also, I'm skeptical that the immigrant William Cloud had a middle name (Robert).  I can find no record indicating he had a middle name.

Thanks Val,

       I've added the source for the marriage.  And that is his findagrave memorial, but I'm not sure that I buy the McCloud story.
Thanks, Ken.  I agree with you on the McCloud story.  I found nothing to substantiate that story posted on findagrave.

I have removed William Cloud as a spouse for Joan Norys.  Added source for marriage (to Robert Cloud) to her profile as well, and removed the "Unsourced" marker.
