Mary Ann Lichfield was baptised on 30th March 1823 at Aspley Guise in Bedfordshire, daughter of a labourer called James Lichfield and his wife Sarah.
On 24th September 1839, aged 16, Mary married John Cook at Husborne Crawley, just east of Aspley Guise. They went on to have thirteen children between 1839 and 1868, although at least eight of them died before reaching adulthood. The first four children were born at Husborne Crawley, where the 1841 census finds them living on Crow Lane. Between 1844 and 1846 they returned to Aspley Guise where the other nine children were born.
The 1851 and 1861 censuses find the family living at New Town in Aspley Guise. John worked as an agricultural labourer, whilst Mary was working as a lace maker in 1851 and a dressmaker in 1861. In 1871 and 1881 they were living at Station Road in Aspley Guise, with John working as a gardener. The station referred to in the street name will be Woburn Sands station, which had opened in 1846.[9] By 1891 they were living on West Street in Aspley Guise.
Mary died in 1898, aged 75. John survived her by two years.
