Portrait Painter
« on: Saturday 10 February 07 12:56 GMT (UK) »
Hi

Wonder if someone would be kind enough to look up in trade directories etc a James Luntley who describes himself on Census Returns 1861-1891 as a Portrait Painter. Lived in the  Beeston area of Nottingham.

Any information gratefully received.

Hi

NFHS Baptism CD:

Annie to James and Elizabeth Luntley 22.2.1863  Beeston  Artist. Station Villas and Dovecote Lane still exist. I have never heard of a St Johns Avenue in Beeston. Also Cromwell St would be Cromwell Road if it was in Beeston.

Hi Jane

Many thanks for the information, James Luntley describes himself as a portrait painter, but apart from the information supplied by Robin, I can find no information regarding his work ?

It was a Elizabeth Fanny C O Luntley B.1865 Beeston dau of James and Elizabeth nee: Letch,  that married a George Tutin B. 1865 Nottingham would love to know what the C O stood for ?

Again many thanks for your interest.

Hi

I have found some details of his work and also a website with a comprehensive family tree. Is it yours? If not it will be a gift!

I will send you a PM with my email as I cannot paste on this reply.
