Photographer…George Bruce…Dunse
« on: Thursday 23 October 14 15:46 BST (UK) »
 I am seeking info on a photographer,"George Bruce" in Dunse,Berwick 1860 +.
His photos were Carte de vista and his name and place were in Dunse and stamped on the reverse of the photo.
My questions…what time frame did he have his business there ?
                  …did he reside there in Dunse?
These questions are so I can attempt to ID photos and their time frame

He was still around in 1879-1883, as he exhibited at the Royal Photographic Society.

Hi
In Rutherfurd's Southern Counties Register of 1866 he is listing in South Street, Dunse, as a 'plumber and photographic artist'- a strange combination of professions!
