Title: WW Hall, photographer
Post by: Frank on Thetis on Saturday 27 June 15 18:10 BST (UK)

Looking for information on WW Hall, 57 Shields Rd., Heaton, Newcastle-on-Tyne.  Think operated mid to late 1800's.  Could find nothing when tried Googling name, address and/or location.
Thanks for any information you may be able to provide.

They have info on a WW Hall but it is a paid site.

Thanks for your reply.  Had found that site but was unsure if the William W Hall they list is the same WW Hall as they show no location.  Thought maybe someone here might have come across WW Hall in the past and would know his years of operation.
