Humphrey Cooke, known in Portuguese chronicles as Inofre Coque, was the first English governor of the Bombay Presidency during the rule of the Honourable East India Company. Cooke completed negotiations for the Portuguese surrender of Bombay, begun by Sir Abraham Shipman, and assumed office as governor on 18 February 1665, after being conveyed to Bombay by three East India Company ships. According to Professor Shafaat Ahmad Khan, Cooke "took himself personally the possession and delivery of the said port and town of Bombay, walking thereupon, taking in his hand earth and stones, entering and walking upon its bastions, putting his hands to the walls thereof, and making all other like acts which in right were necessary without any impediment or contradiction."

Por ter sucedido a Sir Abraham Shipman o comando da força enviada para o efeito, coube-lhe aceitar a cedência da cidade por parte vice-rei português António de Melo e Castro em cumprimento do que regulou o dote de casamento da princesa Catarina de Bragança com o rei Carlos II da Inglaterra. Aquartelado na ilha de Angediva, Cooke completou as negociações para a entrega da praça e porto de Bombaim iniciadas por Sir Abraham Shipman, tomando posse da cidade e porto e assumindo o cargo de governador a 18 de Fevereiro de 1665, depois de ter sido transportado de Angediva para Bombaim por três navios da East India Company. afirma que Cooke tomou pessoalmente posse e entrega do dito porto e cidade de Bobaim, entrando nela, tomando na sua mão terra e pedras, entrando e caminhando nos seus bastiões, pondo as suas mãos nas respectivas paredes, e fazendo todas os actos do estilo que eram necessários sem impedimento ou contradição. Cooke cessou funções em 5 de Novembro de 1666 e regressou a Inglaterra. Os acordos que negociou com os portugueses foram subsequentemente repudiados pelo rei Carlos II de Inglaterra. Durante a sua estadia na Índia adquiriu dos portugueses as praças de Maim, , Dharavi e Vadala, colocando-as sob controlo britânico. (pt)
