Her surname appears to be Tristram on the marriage entry in the parish register:
http://search.ancestry.co.uk/Browse/BookView.aspx?dbid=1623&iid=31280_199077-00264

Also the marriage date is 1st July 1777, not 30th June. They married by licence, so the 30th June date is probably the date of the licence? Both of the parish of Streatham St Leonard. Witnesses are Joseph Overton, Sarah Draper and Eliza Overton.

Her surname also looks like Tristram on the marriage licence documents:

(other name on there is John Doe, which doesn't help!)

Not sure whether you already have her age from the burial - 51.

The only Sophia Tristram baptism I can see at around the right date on FamilySearch is 24 Jun 1743 at Moreton in Marsh, Gloucestershire, parents Charles and Sarah. Quite a while before your Sophia is supposed to have been born, though.
Then there is the baptism of a Richard Collett Tristram 5 Jun 1764, also at Moreton in Marsh, mother Sophia Tristram.

This Sophia could be completely unconnected though!

But ooooh!

Another marriage at Streatham St Leonard - 29 Oct 1771 (mistranscribed as 1772 on ancestry) - Charles Tristram of Morton in Marsh, coun Gloucs, and Susannah Frost of Streatham, married by licence, witnesses John Frost and Sophia Tristram!

Sophia's signature looks the same as on her marriage.

Oooooh thanks Kite :).
I only had the transcription of the marriage not the actual register. Off to have a look now.

The Charles Tristram marriage looks good. Lots more to investigate. :)
Thanks again.
