Unfortunately copies of any W Hewitt Wilton photos that I have, were sent to me via email, so I am unable to see a "reverse" of any of these.  I do have what could be the back of some photos which resembles a business card.  However all they say is
W. Hewitt Wilton
Shoebury School of Photography
Southchurch, Essex

Hi Mark, I found this discussion when looking for info on the Shoebury School of Photography, as I have a photo of my ancestors taken there. Hope you don’t mind but I’ve sent you an email with the photo attached (front and back) - on the back is simply the address of “1 Smith Street” - hoping you might know the dates your ancestor was operating at this address? Now I’ve only just realised that this message is 8 years ago..! Fingers crossed.

Hi Martin, thank you for responding. I intended the response for Trixie, sorry if I posted this in the wrong bit. I think my family might be related to her as we have been researching the same person, I was hoping to get the message to her.

Thanks
Emma

Thanks so much Emma, I’ve replied to your private message now. I’m thrilled to receive your message, yes we are definitely related. Talk soon!

Only if the people are still living though, which is fair enough, but that’s where the electoral rolls come in handy.

Hi Trixie

In this instance there isn't a will, only a letter of administration.

https://probatesearch.service.gov.uk/Support/Help

there is a description of the terms towards the bottom

Regrettably you will get no more information apart from an address.

You may want to try and cancel your order from HMCTS but I don't know if that is possible.

Oh! Thanks dawnsh, we ordered it a few days ago now so might be too late to cancel. Gee it’s definitely not proving easy to get info on this man!

And thanks for the advice re Cemetery records. I think we have been incredibly spoiled in Australia, we seem to record everything!

You could try contacting Pontypridd FH Library via email they are very helpful, if able to help. They may have the interment records for Glyntaff Cem, if lucky may have dob.

Info from electrol register may help, need address given from death cert/probate.  Nothing ventured...worth a shot.

Thanks Cas. Have now heard back from Cemetery enquiry, and no DOB in the burial records unfortunately. Will contact the library and see if there are newspapers of the time which may have more on the accident that took his life, and maybe a death notice if we’re lucky, although his parents and brother were up in Durham.

Thanks Ray. Have sent off for his will. Not overly confident, as we think he would’ve just left everything to his wife, but hopeful that there may be a clue to his origins in there. Fingers crossed!

Thanks very much for visiting for us David, it’s very much appreciated. A pity there’s no headstone! It’s back to the drawing board now. I guess nothing worthwhile comes easy! Thanks again.
