Edwin Mole was born at Carlton BDF, in 1863, and his wife Eliza (nee Clarke) was born at Towcester in 1861. They were married in Kent in 1890, perhaps in Penge, where their two daughters were born. Ethel was born in 1891 and Elsie in 1892.

In 1901 they were in Rushden living at 3 Church Street, and his widowed mother Ann (born c1834 Houghton Conquest) was also living with the family.

The advert in 1900 tells that he had gained a Diploma from the Master Bakers and Confectioners' Society, London. In 1898 he had advertised his shop adjoining the bakehouse. He was still here in 1914, but failed to advertised in Kelly's 1920.
