Pickering Photographers

[AmyUK]

Does anyone know of an old photography studio in Market Place, Pickering? I am not familiar at all with Yorkshire as all my family are from London, Sussex and Hertfordshire but i have one photograph in the old family photos of a young lady that is stamped at the bottom Smith, Market Place, Pickering. There is an initial before Smith but it is worn and i can't decide if it is an S, I or L.
If anyone can help then it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Amy,
I found this by Googling:  http://www.beckislemuseum.co.uk/gallery/
He sounds like quite an important fellow!

Just an update to say i emailed the museum and they confirmed that Sydney Smith did have a studio in Market Place and they asked me for a scan of the picture and are going to try and help me identify the mysterious person.

Many thanks for your help,

Amy
