3 people born in Stratton have an English Wikipedia article that confirms the town as their birthplace. Wikidata places 4 people here; the rest aren’t listed because their article names somewhere else, or no town.

Richard Maynard, born in 1832. The youngest on the list was born in 1996.

People Wikidata records as born in a place inside Stratton’s built-up area (the ONS 2022 boundary), a hospital or district within it included, whose English Wikipedia article agrees. People who only lived here, adult performers and people known mainly for crimes aren’t listed.

Their Wikidata birthplace may be a bigger area (“London”), another town, or missing, or their article may give no birthplace. We only list people both sources agree on; editing Wikidata or Wikipedia changes this page at the next refresh.
