You may already be aware that the Maria Hook, wife of Jonathan Hook in the 1891 census is Maria Babb, daughter of William Babb, rope-maker. Jonathan and Maria married Christmas Day 1885 at St James the Less, Ashted. Following Jonathan Hooks death, she went on to marry Harry Wilkins 21 May 1893 also at St James the Less, Ashted. Its possible / probable that this is the same Maria Babb in your earlier censuses shown above, daughter of William Babb the rope spinner.
