Peter L. Henderson - where to find his photo?
« on: Saturday 17 September 22 22:03 BST (UK) »
Hi.
My first post.
Peter Lindsay Henderson (1831-1881). You can read about him here: https://www.gracesguide.co.uk/Peter_Lindsay_Henderson
Does anyone know where would be a good place to search for a photo of him?

  Welcome to RootsChat! My first thought was newspapers, but it is probably a bit early for pictures, and I could only find very brief obituary notices.
   Others more knowledgeable than me may have other suggestions.
Pay, Kent
Codham/Coltham, Kent
Kent, Felton, Essex
Staples, Wiltshire

 Welcome

Photography had been around in those infancy years but not used so much in newspapers only for big events - if any or important features. Family studio photo's were more common, thus its a slim chance some of these genealogical websites like Ancestry.co.uk or .com may have a family tree with a photo of Peter. L. Henderson - a slim chance but  ??? - you never know  :o
In my opinion the marriage residence is not always the place of birth. Never forget Workhouse and overseers accounts records of birth

A quick check on trees held on Ancestry show none have images of this man.
