Update of Hertfordshire Photographers & Post Card Publishers


One of the activities that is slowly continuing is the update of information on Victorian  photographers in Hertfordshire and also early post card publishers.  In the last couple of months changes have been made to the following pages - ranging from a revised date to new examples of their work and additional biographical information. Some of the pages are "work pages" in that when I get perhaps half a dozen references I will then consider adding biographical details.

George Avery (1839-1911) of Hitchin (1864-1870) & Kent
John Barnard (1841-1894) of St Albans (1878-1894)
