Contact the local library in the area of interest. They normally have photographic archives going back many years. Also local and national newspapers have photo archives too. You could also google local genealogy and family history groups and see what they have. |

Despite the rise of photo-booths and instant digital photos, there are still quite a lot of professional photo studios around, and some of these are old-established, even going back to the late 19th century. If you're lucky you might find one or two in the right area of the country who have preserved records (and even negatives) from the early days - but note the words "if", "lucky" and "might". |

thanks for your help - will start digging around and see if I can find any. It's great finding names of long gone ancestors and I imagine it would be even more so to actually see photos of them !! |
