Title: Photographers in Goole around 1900
Post by: Stuckley1 on Monday 04 July 16 18:44 BST (UK)

Hi!
I'm having difficulty trying to find the name of a photographic studio based in Goole around 1900.

I have some pictures of my ancestors and in print is the photographers name printed above the word Goole.

I can see his first two initials are 'J G' and his surname is hard to read (louses or prubes???)

Anyone have similiR pictures or know the photographers name?

Many thanks

Hi, there was a J.G Harrison in Goole, there was also a photographer named Powles and Briggs I believe.
