Hi Brett + anyone else interested,
Yes, I will be in touch. Pity you are so far away - there are still many photos in this album that I am trying to date, and discover reasons
why they are in there (associations, etc). Do you ever come over to England, Brett?
I didn't pick up on the fact that Fox Talbot was an associate of Richard Keene until I read through this time. I have a photo of a
photo of a print by Fox Talbot (strange faces!) - I've always wondered why it was in the album.
I often wondered what would have been Charles Richards' fate if he hadn't died at the age of 21 - whether he would have been as wwll known as Richard Keene, or Samuel Kirk. We will never know. So sad - the family must have been devastated!

P.S. There is a photo of a little child (I would have said boy - but the child looks as if it is holding a doll) and every time I look at it I wonder if it is one of the children in my own photo. (It is in the Richard Keene collection on Brett's site).
Tell me what you think.
