Hi, I believe my father worked with Harold Knipe in the National Library of Wales.   Would this be the same person?

Hi Dave, thanks for the reply.

Could be, I'm not aware of any other Harold Knipe in Wales at that time. 


My side of the family came out to Australia around 1850 and I have only just managed to find the connection to this side so know very little.  I have managed to fill in some gaps and the connection to William Redmayne Knipe (the book seller in Ulverston/Liverpool - his father William, Grocer of Kirkland is the common ancestor) but not much more. 

Would be very interested in making connections and learning more.

cheers

Thanks for all the responses.
The photographic studio is interesting - i think I saw an earlier reference to this in the census.  Curious that a relative in Australia was a photographer at the same time in Victoria.  Is there anywhere else I could track this?

cheers

Also he seems to have worked in partnership:

28 Pier Street, Aberystwyth appears to be a pizzeria today.   On the google map the address may have been the site of Evered Davies Photography later in the century.   Perhaps someone could confirm this.

The Mandarin Chinese Restaurant is at 26 Pier Street and this used to be Everard Davies photographers
