I have a photo from A. D. Lewis, 5 Hinde ST, Newcastle also.
I think it was taken between 1855 and 1865. I have my gg grandmother's
photo book. I have found most of the pictures to be from that era.
Hope this helps.

, my great grandfather John Edward Devitt lived in 75 Hinde St with his parents according to the 1871 census . The name was misspelt as Deveitt .He came to Australia in about 1876/77 and I was wondering if you had some history of Hinde St in that time. I understand that Hinde St was incorporated into Scotswood road before the 1881 census . John Edward Devitt would have been 13 in 1871 , he had an older sister Margaret who I cannot trace after 1871 and his parents were Edward Patrick and Ann. Edward Patrick was a bricklayer, and I have no other record of him, his widow Ann came to Australia and died in 1882. Any history of that time would be welcome, Judith, Australia
