This TEA TRAY was formerly the property of CAPTAIN JAMES COOK, Circum Navigator and was bequeathed in 1835 by his widow, Mrs Elizabeth Cook to his great niece, (my maternal aunt) Mrs Indianna Jenkins, wife of Henry Jenkins, Chemist, of Barnsbury Place, Islington, whose only daughter, Mary Cook Jenkins, my cousin became my wife.
Black-lacquered, rectangular tray with cut corners. There is a border of gold thistles round the edge and hand holds in the sides. It belonged to James Cook and his wife, Elizabeth.
