Maude Walker, born 1894, is listed in the 1911 census as living at other addresses, although in 1901 and 1921 she is at a very similar address to that on the card. In the 1939 register she is listed as "incapacitated" and she died in 1948. Interestingly this postcard mentions W.H. Hooke's shop, which was at 7 Market Place
