Hello, Can anyone help in dating a family photograph of an unkown lady dressed in an old fashion style. On the back is the name of the photographers studio Milson Street Photographic Gallery, address 44 Milton Street in Bath, with the name M Medrington which stands for Marcus. Is it possible to find out how many years this business was in Bath, are there any archives of Photography businesses? Best wishes Cheryl Kettering Northants.

If you Google around you can find fashion sites which give fashion by the decade and that can help a lot. There are directories but they are hard to work with There is a book Rambles around Bath which mentions the Photographer (if you can't make the link work search Medrington Photographer Bath) http://books.google.com/books?id=ftAuAAAAMAAJ&pg=RA1-PA15&lpg=RA1-PA15&dq=Medrington+photographers+Bath&source=bl&ots=sk_r0nzfzu&sig=GdkxP6Tl454MfT0ym9fIey4BgbY&hl=en&sa=X&ei=cNXJUYe3IdS34APC5oCYDw&ved=0CDsQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=Medrington%20photographers%20Bath&f=false This gives some information about M Medrington - more about his sons http://www.amounderness.co.uk/charles_edward_medrington,_photographer,_liverpool.html Eliz Not Today and Not without a Fight (Anon) For all that has been, thanks. For all that will be, yes.
