EVERITT A.G.

FISHER R.S.C.
The printed inscription on his outdoor cabinet photograph (NC) of a family group is ‘R.S.C. Fisher, Mead Street, Peterhead.’ Directories for 1897 and from 1900 to 1907 list a Thos. C. Fisher at Mead Street, near the Peterhead railway station, and he is presumed to be the Thomas Coltman Fisher recorded on p.503 of BISA as having a son, Richard Scholar Coltman Fisher (1883-1923), who is almost certain to be the person who took the group photograph.

 

FLORANCE Alfred Harrill
In October 1873 Alfred H.

In his evidence he said, ‘I know something about photography. Am acquainted with every part of the business ...

The children were carefully posed and sharply focussed, a painted backdrop and other typical studio accessories have been used, and the print has been carefully trimmed to an oval shape and accurately placed on the cardboard mount. Although no reference to Holden & Green has been found in available directories, a John Green of Saddleworth, no occupation given, is listed in directories from 1903 to 1906, and he may be the John Green listed in BISA, p.611, who departed for Victoria.in 1907.
