Do You Have Photographs You Can't Identify?
By: Ryan Taylor,
Biography and Archived Articles
Do you have photographs you can't identify? I suppose we all do. One
help in starting to use these pictures is knowledge about the
photographer.
Three newly published books can aid this search:
 The Ontario Photographers List 1851-1900 ($30) by Glen C. Phillips contains references to places in the provinces which had studios, who ran them and when. There is a name index.
A supplement, The Ontario Photographers List, volume II, 1901-1925 ($25) adds more names. http://globalgenealogy.com/Books/107002.htm
The Three Prairie Provinces, British Columbia and Yukon are covered in his The Western Canada Photographers List, 1860-1925 ($30). It uses the same format. http://globalgenealogy.com/Books/107004.htm
All three are available from GlobalGenealogy.com at 1-800-361-5168 or click on the hot links above for more informaiton.
