Disclaimer and Details
- DISCLAIMER: I know nothing about these people or their families. I just bought the Cartes-de-Visite
and have published them here to help other family
historians.
- NAME: The name written on the photo (usually on the reverse).
A question mark (?) means either the writer or myself is unsure about the
transcription or the identification. An asterisk beside the name means
there is further information on the actual photo. Click on the
thumbnail for a better view.
- PHOTOGRAPHER: This is the location of the studio where the
photograph was taken and may help with identification. Was your
relative in that area around that date? And the dates the photograph
studios were in existence can also help to date the photo. Here are
links to a list of
photographers from Roger Vaughan and the
Rodliffes' Index
of UK portrait & studio photographers.
- DATE: The date has been given when it was found written on the back of the
photo. Otherwise, you will need to consult
Roger
Vaughan's Dating Old Photographs site and his list of
Photos by Year or the
Rodliffe's Dating
Aids page and have a go at dating it
yourself.
- MORE: Select the Thumbnail photo for a larger size view of the front and reverse
of the photos. The back of the photo is an important clue for dating
it. See
Roger Vaughan's photo site for instructions.
- CONTACT: You can leave a message on the
Guest Book. But note the disclaimer above.
