George & Ellen were certainly at The Bell by August 1909 as there was an article in Berkshire Chronicle dated 14 August 1909 about a robbery at The Bell & Ellen Mary was quoted as the wife of the licensee in the report. *

George Henry Fox died 15 February 1915 as he left a will & was recorded as a licensed victualler of The Bell Inn, Twyford. George's wife Ellen died October 1915 in Twyford, I'm not sure if she was still living at The Bell Inn at the time of her death though. *
