Derbyshire Photographers which states:
This ongoing study of 19th- and early 20th-Century Derbyshire studio photographers includes an index with their known dates of operation, as well as profiles of selected studios. Genealogists and family historians will hopefully find this a useful tool for dating old family photographs
Where available, a link is provided between the photographer's name and a
biographical profile on the Derbyshire Photographer's website.
