Name:  DAVIES, Peter Hughes   b: 1816, Launceston Cornwall  d: 1898
Address: High Street, March
Working Dates: 1869-
Subjects, styles, advertising, other relevant information: In 1861 Peter Davies was a chemist in High Street March where he was living with his wife Elizabeth B(arratt?) Davies b:1825 Teignmouth Devon. In 1871 Peter's family included daughter Sarah A Davies b:1860 March Cambs, son Frederic A Davies b:1865 March Cambs and daughter Sarah Lloyd Davies b:1868 March Cambs. Also in the household was an assistant, Thomas Maddison b:1854 Swaffham Norfolk (who does not seem to have been connected with the Maddison family of photographers based in Huntingdon) and an apprentice, Wilson Shepperson b:1855 Wisbech. In 1881 Peter was still a March Chemist, living with the same family in the High Street. His assistant at this point was George Hunn b:1863 Yarmouth. In 1891 Peter was still a pharmaceutical chemist living with his wife, daughter Sarah Lloyd, grand daughter Winifred Davies b:1879 March and the chemist's assistant was Jas Herbert South b:1871 Otley Yorkshire. Peter died in 1898. It is not known at what stage Peter took up photography, but he has a single listing as a photographer in the 1869 Kelly's directory. The first carte de visite below reproduced with the permission of the Wisbech and Fenland Museum is of Sir Algernon Peyton (believed to be Sir Algernon Peyton, 4th Baronet (1833–1872) and could be from the late 1860s, early 1870s. The reverse contains an image of Davies Chemist shop. The next two cartes de visite below from the author's collection appear to be a little later, perhaps from the 1880s. They depict a vignette portrait of a lady with heavily frilled collar and a cameo portrait of a young child of indeterminate gender around 3-4 years old. Below are two advertisements by P.H.Davies, photographic chemist, (kindly provided by Nick Smith) from coronation programmes from March Cambridgeshire dated 1902 and 1911. The firm's name continued in use after the death of PH Davies. Both adverts show Davies offering photographic materials and equipment, but not offering services as a photographer, although they did have a darkroom which customers could use to change plates.

Working Dates: 1913-15
Subjects, styles, advertising, other relevant information: Photos of university life were a specialty. Arthur James Davis was the son of a College Servant and in 1881 was living with his family in Queens Road Cambridge and was a watchmaker's apprentice. In 1891 Arthur was a watchmaker and jeweller in his own right, employing others, living at 4 Peas Hill Cambridge.

In 1901 Davis was a watchmaker and jeweller, an employer of others, at 6 Peas Hill Cambridge, where he lived with his wife Caroline. In the 1911 census return Davis is listed at 3 Rose Crescent as a watchmaker and jeweller, a maker but principally a dealer. His son, Cyril Arthur Ernest Davis b: 1890 and daughter Winifred Irene Davis b: 1895 assisted in the business. He is listed as a photographer in the local directories for 1913-15 at 3 Rose Crescent. The National Archives have six of Arthur's applications to Stationers' Hall in 1906 to register assignment of copyright of six of his photographs for postcards to local fancy stationer John Phillips Gray of 34 Trinity Street, Cambridge.

The real photograph postcard below is from around 1906 and depicts two young men with a terrier being stopped and checked in Trinity Street Cambridge by one of the University Proctors and two of his Constables. Undergraduates were required to wear academic gowns at this time and the caption "Progged" suggests these two had been caught by the Proctor in contravention of this requirement. In the lower rh corner is written "Copyright Davis", the postcard was published by Metcalfe and Co Ltd, Trinity Street, Cambridge.

RP postcard "Progged" by Davis

Name:  DAVIS, Christopher   b:1849       d:1928
Address: 7 Towler Street, Peterborough.
Working Dates: Peterborough c. 1906
Subjects, styles, advertising, other relevant information: This photographer appears in a single entry in a local trade directory for 1906. No obvious further matches could be found in the 1901 or 1911 census returns, but David Simkin, who runs the excellent site on Sussex Photo History (www.photohistory-sussex.co.uk/), picks up the story. "The photographer concerned is almost certainly Christopher John Allen Davis (1849-1928). Christopher John Allen Davis was born in the King's Cross / St Pancras district of London during the 3rd Quarter of 1849, the son of Rebecca Allen and Christopher Henry Teesdale Davis (c1819-1884), a pharmaceutical chemist of London. Christopher Davis worked as a photographer in Lewes, Sussex, between 1871 and 1881 before establishing his own photographic studio in Brighton at 48 West Street, Brighton, around 1882, possibly entering into business partnership with William Avenell. Christopher Davis married Emily Lintott in Brighton in 1882 and this union produced three children. Mrs Emily Davis, Christopher's first wife, died in 1889 at the age of 41. In 1891, Christopher Davis married Adelaide Jessie Adams. At the time of the 1891 census, Christopher Davis was residing in the Preston District of Brighton. Although he described himself as a "Photo Artist (Employer)", it was the name of his business partner, William Avenell, which appeared printed on the mounts of the photographs produced at the studio at 48 West Street, Brighton. At the time of the 1901 census, Christopher J. A. Davis was working as a photographer in Worcester. Christopher Davis was now a widower and his three children were being cared for by his unmarried sister Emma Jane Davis (born c1844, London). Unhampered by his children, I expect Christopher Davis was working as an itinerant photographer. By 1906, Davis was working as a photographer in Peterborough. At the time of the 1911 census, Christopher John Allen Davis, a 62 year old widower, was an inmate of the Thorpe Road Workhouse in Peterborough. On the census form, Christopher John Allen Davis is described as a "Photographic Artist (own account, at home)". In the 1921 Census Christopher was an inmate at the Union Workhouse in Peterborough, described as a retired photographer. Christopher John Allen Davis died in Peterborough in 1928 at the age of 79." Below is a carte de visite of an unknown young man. The mount is cream with gilt edges, blank reverse and "C Davis Tenbury" printed in dark green beneath the image. This may be the same photographer who was operating in nearby Worcester in 1901.

Carte de visite by C Davis Tenbury

Name: DAVIS, Francis      b:       d:
Address: 3 Hazlemere Villas, Needingworth Road, St Ives
Working Dates: c.1910-11
Subjects, styles, advertising, other relevant information: A single reference in a 1910 directory lists Davis as a photographic printseller and stationer. No trace has been found of him in the 1901 or 1911 census returns. Some of his work has survived in the Norris Museum Collection, St Ives. A 1910 photograph PH/S.IVE/Mrkt.Hl/19 of the election campaign has printed on the reverse “F.Davis, photographer, 3 Haslemere Villas, St Ives, Hunts". Also a 1911 photograph of the proclamation of George V  PH/S.IVE/Mrkt.Hl/23 has Davis’s details printed on the reverse as has PH/S.IVE/Pa.Chur/38, a church interior at St Ives All Saints, c.1910. Below is an outdoor portrait of a gentleman in a bowler hat standing with a hand on a chair back. On the reverse is printed: "F.Davis, photographer, 3 Haslemere Villas, St Ives, Hunts." This could be from around 1910.

Name:  DAVIS, John Frederick   b:       d:
Address: 31 Priestgate, Peterborough. Huntingdon
Working Dates: 1861 - 2
Subjects, styles, advertising, other relevant information: In 1861 John advewrtised in the Peterborough Advertiser (19 October 1861 p1) "Life in Portraiture, at J. F. DAVIS'S New Photographic Gallery, No. 31, Priestgate Peterborough. Portraits from life size to the smallest miniature in oil, crayon, sepia, or water colours. Prices front ls. to ten guineas. Hours of attendance from 9 till dark.— N.B. The state of the atmosphere of no consequence. Daguerreotype miniatures restored, and every class of pictures copied." Described as an "Artist Photographic and miniature" in a single local trade directory entry in 1862. John Frederick Davis filed for bankruptcy in the Court of Bankruptcy London on the 12th of September, 1864, showing his occupation as photographic artist and auctioneer. Details of the bankruptcy case appeared in the London Gazette as shown below. Discharge was granted by the Court of Bankruptcy, London, on the 21st day of November, 1864. (Bernard and Pauline Heathcote list a John Frederick Davis b: 1823 Canterbury, son of William Davis builder, married to Matilda Watson Clark 5 July 1855, as a Nottingham photographer from 1851-61. This Davis went bankrupt in 1861, and died in 1862, so was a different person to our Priestgate photographer). No trace has been found of Davis in the 1861 or 1871 census. By 1867 Davies had apparently moved on to Huntingdon. The Cambridge Independent Press - Saturday 10 August 1867 Page 1 reported:
"The Bankruptcy Act, 1861. the County Court of Huntingdonshire, holden at Huntingdon, in the matter of JOHN FREDERICK DAVIS, of the Town of Huntingdon, in the county of Huntingdon, Auctioneer and Photographic Artist, adjudged bankrupt on the Ist day of April, 1867. A meeting of the creditors of the said bankrupt will be held before the Registrar at his office in Huntingdon, on the 22nd day of August, 1867, 11 o'clock in the forenoon, for the purpose of declaring a dividend, and also whether any allowance shall be made to the bankrupt. Proofs of debts will be received, and creditors who have not yet proved, and do not then prove, will be excluded the benefit of the dividend. CHARLES JACOB. High Bailiff". Davis appears to have survived this second bankruptcy and is listed in Kelly's 1869 Directory of Huntingdonshire as an artist and frame maker living in the High Street at Huntingdon.

Name: DAY, John AIIP b: 1913 (see text below)       d:
Address: in 1939, 1974, 1977, 1980 at 164 Lynn Rd Wisbech, 1986, 1990, 1995, 1999 the firm was at 106 Lynn Road, Wisbech
Working Dates: 1939 – a number of online directories suggest the firm may still be in business in 2016
Subjects, styles, advertising, other relevant information: In the 1939 Register there was a John Day b:1913 a photographic studio operator living at 164 Lynn Road, Wisbech. Living with him were Alice M Day b: 1873 retired publican and Bessie F C Day b: 1916 a dressmaker (partner). In "Lilian Ream A Life In Photography" by Kim Bowden, Cambs CC, 1992, p77 the chapter on Roland Ream, the son of Wisbech photographer Lilian Ream states, "At the end of the war Roland had returned full of ideas for expanding the business in the field of cine films. In 1946 the lease on the separate dress shop had expired and he took it over as an independent business called "Roland Ream Cine Service". He had always been interested in cine photography and was in the fortunate position of being able to build a business from his hobby. The shop sold cine cameras and projectors, sold, developed and printed films and carried out equipment repairs. Schools from a wide area became important customers for the sale and maintenance of visual aid equipment. Roland also hired commercially produced films and would show them to local groups and at private parties. He was assisted by John Day who had previously worked for E.Lawrence Witcombe Ltd, the portrait and commercial photographers at 7 Nene Quay who were also accredited dealers for Gebescape and Pathe cine apparatus. It is not known how long the association between Roland Ream and John Day continued, but Roland closed his business in 1971.Yellow pages show that from 1974 - 1999 John Day AIIP specialised in commercial, weddings, portraiture, and press work. Derrick C Plume, who ran Studio Margaret in Wisbech, recalls that the photographers at the Wisbech Standard, 27 Hill Street,Wisbech, before the paper was bought by Thomsons in the 1980s were John Day and Julian Lynn. Garry Monger lived at 106 Lynn Rd and sold the property in December 1983 to another photographer Julian Lynn, who Garry states had taken over the John Day Studio. John Day had retired by 1983 and never lived or worked at 106 Lynn Rd. The name "John Day Photography" obviously continued in use after John's retirement (e.g. mention in the 1986 theatre program for the Wisbech Amateur Operatic and Dramatic Society production of Alladin). Julian Lynn's photographs also appeared in theatre programs for the WAODS (e.g. the 1992 programme for "Salad Days")

Portrait by AR Denston

Name: DEW-SMITH, Albert George   b: 1848 Salisbury Wilts      d:1903 Fulham
Address: Trinity College Cambridge, Chesterton Hall, Chesterton Road Cambridge c 1901
Working Dates: c 1870 - 1903
Subjects, styles, advertising, other relevant information: Albert, son of Charles Smith, of Thames Ditton, Surrey, entered Trinity College in 1869, and around 1870 changed his surname to Dew-Smith after inheriting some property. He received his BA in 1873. In 1881 with Horace Darwin (1851-1928) he founded the Cambridge Scientific Instrument Company to manufacture scientific instruments. This company was one of the foundations of what was eventually to become known as the "Cambridge Phenomenon". In 1884 Albert was voted a member of the Photographic Society of Great Britain, and the following year he exhibited three portraits: Dr Aldis Wright, Prof Caley FRS and Herr Joachim, in their annual exhibition. He continued to be a Society member until 1897. In the 1891 census Albert was a Master of Arts living at Trinity College and he showed his occupation as "an employer of lithographic artists". According to "A History of Cambridge University Press: Volume 3, New Worlds for Learning..." By David McKitterick, in the 1890s Dew-Smith was "a photographer of outstanding ability", "responsible for all photography at the University Library" and "proprietor of the Cambridge Engraving Company", which was a lithographic printing company. Albert seems to have been an early example of that powerful combination of the academic and successful entrepreneur. In 1901 Albert was living with his wife Alice Mary b:1859 Aukland New Zealand at The Hall, Chesterton Road Cambridge, living on his own means. The enumerator wrongly wrote his surname as "Du'Smith" According to Cambridge University Alumni, 1261-1900 he was a collector of books and jewels and a noted photographer. Died Mar. 17, 1903, aged 54, at Hurlingham Court, Fulham. Buried at the Histon Road cemetery, Cambridge. There are ten portraits by Albert in the photographic collection of the National Portrait Gallery. www.npg.org.uk/collections/search/portrait-list.php?search=sp&sText=DEW%20SMITH. Also at the NPG are five photographs which are of, or include, Albert taken by Eveleen Myers (who is listed on this site).
