Hi,
I was doing some research on – Drewett Photographer, 47 High Street, Guildford and found your website. I have a great cdv photo of a boy with 2 dogs that was taken at this studio. I think it was taken in the 1860′s and have found a website that shows Drewett doing photography in 1864. This is where I found that information. http://www.newspaperdetectives.co.uk/master1864D.htm
I would be happy to send you a copy of my cdv (front & back) if you would like to use it on your website. It’s really a great photo! I collect dog & people photos and have over 100 of them. All I ask is that you give me credit for the photo, in case anyone should ever want a copy of it. Thanks
Kristie
Hi Kristie,
Yes, It would be great if you could send the photograph and its back that you mentioned. I can then feature it on the blog. Perhapsa it will encourage others to send in their favourite 19th century photos.
(The photographer, Mr Drewett that you mentioned was still in business in Guildford in 1891 and possibly even later).
Regards

I have a photo taken by John Collier, 66 New Street, Birmingham, England. Do you know anything about him and the years in which he operated his studio?
Finola,
I could only find one reference to John Collier, photographer, among the directories and that was in 1888. He was not to be found in 1873 or 1902, so quite a narrow window. Perhaps Birmingham library could supply more info.
QVictoria
John Collier was my wife’s great-grandfather – he took over the Photography Business of R W Thrupp in the mid 1880s but lost a lot of money organising exhibitions of photography and paintings in the mid 1890s – in fact he was declared bankcrupt around 1898 and died in 1910.
I have photos of him if you are interested.
Larry Bennett
Larry, yes would love to see photos of John Collier and if I may I’d like to include the details you sent, with his entry. It makes it more interesting for everybody if a few biographic details can be included.
many Thanks – Christine Hibbert (QVictoria)
I’ve been going through a few old family photos taken by B. Duckmanton, in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, probably during the 1880s 1890s. Is there any way of being absolutely sure that Duckmanton’s studio only operated between 1892 and 1896? I ask the question because a couple of the photographs seem to have been made earlier than that, according to the birth dates in the family-tree database.
Best wishes,
David.
Thanks to your photographers’ list I was able to date a portrait of a male relative taken by Walter Baker late with Alfred Cox & Co 8 Derby Road Nottingham to between 1893 and 1900.
I have another which says Peveril Studios, 30, Pelham Stree, Nottingham. Lady wih hat and wearing a fur coat, in an oval mount.
many thanks

Hi I am interested in anything on the CHAFFIN family – those from Sherborn and from Yeovil are related to each other and to me. I would greatly appreciate any trade cards or named sitters or un named sitters taken by the CHAFFIN family (especially if there are clues to identify them!).
Regards, James WILLIAMS, Grandson of Sarah CHAFFIN.
Hi James,
Thanks for the e-mail re Chaffin photographers. I’ll get back to you soon
