Photographer in Caernarfon
« on: Thursday 05 November 09 16:40 GMT (UK) »
Does anyone know if any catalogue survives from Humphrey photography studio Castle street Carnarvon (his spelling)?  I have a number of photos, and one of them has a catalogue number - I was curious to know whether I could date this photo from any archive paperwork that survived from this business

thanks

Catrin,

Sorry, I've only just seen this. ::)


I've never seen any records of Hugh Humphreys (or any other Caernarfon photographer for that matter) in the Caernarfon R.O.

A pity, as they would be a genealogical goldmine.
