| Emma Higgins Family Album |
These photographs come from a family album from the second half of the 19th century, and show the family of William Slade Higgins and his wife Emma, nee Gregory of Stocking Green Farm and The Swan Inn, Hanslope. They were married in December 1885 but as William died only two years later, the album is thought to be primarily of Emma's friends and family.
Many of the photographs were taken by Northampton Studio Photographers. For these photographs the dates the photographer operated are noted from a handbook in Northampton Central Library, Local Studies Section.
The styles of dress worn in the photographs have been dated by a museum costume expert. (The expert did not know the dates the photographers were operating, but the dates from the two sources tally very well.)
The photographs are all of individuals, several of whose identity is unknown. If you have information that would put names to these people, please let us know at hdhs@btinternet.com.
This family album was provided by Daniel Punter whose wife is a descendant of the couple. Daniel did all the research and provided the narratives that accompany the photographs. |
