Hi Eise 
As far as I remember, there are no pictures of travelling folk amongst the photos I have, at least not specifically - there are hundreds of unnamed people in the photos, but nothing that says "traveller" to me Hopefully one day soon you'll be able to look through them for yourself! We are still waiting, though...

Hi
Any news yet as to when the site may be back on line. Still cannot access it. It sounds really good.

Cheers everyone 
John, I'm using Photoshop Elements 3 for the Mac  Haven't updated the site for a long time - all the scanning was finished ages ago but I still have most of the photos stored away (some have been returned to museums in places of origin; families of photographers etc.)
Cheers Prue

There's a website that holds a directory of early photographers by county - just thought I'd post this link here as it might help:
http://www.familytreeforum.com/wiki/index.php/Directories_of_Victorian_and_Edwardian_Photographers
It's a subsection of another of another online photo collection i.e. Roger Vaughan Collection.
Main page: http://www.cartes.fsnet.co.uk/index.htm
Has a good section on dating old photos.....

I don't know if any of you are LostCousins members, but they recently tried finding the first person to be photographed, i.e. the person with the earliest birth date to appear in a photograph.
What is the oldest you all have, and what's the oldest on Prue's site?
