Title: E Greetham of Hereford.
Post by: Jo Harding on Friday 12 August 16 16:21 BST (UK)

Hello Rootschatters,

Does anyone know the dates the photographic business of E Greetham was in existence in Hereford?

I have looked on one website which lists known dates of 1891-1895 but this isn't necessarily the entire period this firm was in business there.

I have a photo of a family member that I would like to know the date it was taken and will post this later.

Jo.

A website of Robert Vaughan, list a photograph from 1902:
E.Greetham & Co, 42 Commercial Road, Hereford. [Lady c.1902. Nice back - Art designed card, serrated edges]

On the 1881 census he was in Tamworth, Staffordshire.
In Hereford on 1891 and 1901.

There is a possible death in 1909, Stockport?
Edwin Greetham was born in 1830, in Portsmouth.

Thank you for this. The dates I have were from the Victorian Photographers site. It suggested the period he operated there may have been longer. I have an idea the photo sent to me dates from the 1890s but cannot be certain and will post this for other opinions.
