Name:  TRUMAN, William     b:       d:
Address: Royal School of Photography, New Road, Peterborough
Working Dates: c 1880s
Subjects, styles, advertising, other relevant information: See below carte de visite (Simon Shirley Collection) of unknown male, mounted on black square cornered mount, gold line round face, ornate gold lettering on reverse. On the face "W Truman Photo Artist", on the reverse "Royal School of Photography W Truman New Road Peterborough. Portraits enlarged to life size and painted in oil or water colours, families and invalids waited on at their own residencies, copies can always be had." The mount is by W Hooper Montpellier Street Walworth. C. early 1880s. Below this is a second example carte de visite depicting two men standing leaning on an elaborate column. This is on a similar Hooper mount, except the mount is cream with red print and there is no text on the face of the mount.
References: No trace has been found of William Truman in the trade directories of Peterborough, census returns or general newspaper searches. There is the slight possibility that this might be Peterborough Ontario, but the London mount supplier makes this unlikely. According to PhotoLondon there was a Royal School of Photography in London, Manager: Harry Rands. Their studio was at 63 St Paul's Churchyard, City of London floor 3 from 1875 - 1878 when they were succeeded by London & County Portrait Co. This may be completely unconnected.

Name: TUBBS, Dr William John b:1812 d: 1870
Address: Parsons Drove, Upwell, Outwell
Working Dates: 1850s, 1860s
Subjects, styles, advertising, other relevant information: William Tubbs was a doctor and apothecary at Parsons Drove then Upwell. In 1841 William was living at Upwell. He stated his age was 30 years and his occupation was a surgeon. In the same household was Thomas Tubbs, Merchant, aged 25 and Julia Tubbs, also aged 25. In the 1851 census, William John Tubbs was a surgeon and apothecary at Upwell. He again gave his age as 30 years and birthplace as Tilney, Norfolk. Also present was his wife Elizabeth, daughters Julia and Victoria, plus a general servant and groom. In the 1861 census William John Tubbs, General Practitioner, was living at Upwell. He was aged 49 years, b.1812 Terrington, his wife Elizabeth 55 b.1806 Upwell gave her occupation as "Surgeon's wife". Also in the family home was their daughter, Julia b 1839 Upwell, plus a visiting farmer's daughter, aged 17, plus a dispenser, Reuben Silbourn, aged 30 b. 1831 Upwell, plus a housemaid. Dr Tubbs was a follower of the theories and practices of Dr Franz Mesmer. Mesmer's theories related to "animal magnetism". However, one of the techniques developed by Mesmer and his followers was the ability to hypnotise a patient and whilst the patient was in a trance to perform painless operations. This was a skill which Dr Tubbs demonstrated on a number of occasions in the presence of critical observers. In addition to other skills Dr Tubbs was an accomplished photographer. Local historian Mike Petty refers to a surviving album of photographs by Dr Tubbs, which included a portrait of Tubbs himself. The site for Photographic Exhibitions in Britain 1839 to 1865 http://peib.dmu.ac.uk/index.php lists 2 photos by Tubbs exhibited at Norwich Photographic Society Exhibition 1856.

  • Tubbs W.I. photographer, portrait, coloured,
  • Tubbs W.P. photographer, Portrait of W.P.Tubbs Esq,

Are these one or two misprints for W.J.Tubbs, or two different W Tubbs?
