The widow running the Alfreds
Head, Lambeth in 1881, Maria Cook, was formerly Maria Hughes. Born in
1825 or thereabouts, she married James Cook in Bisham. Her late husband was
a Sawyer and Licensed Victualler at the
Red Lion, Ealing in 1871, and
at Bisham in Berks in 1861. James Cook, late husband of the Maria who ran
the "Alfred's Head" in Stockwell, ran the well-known Bull Inn in Bisham, as
did his father (Thomas Cook) before him. **
