Description An account of the resource Woman standing by Rustic fence with flowers and umbrella. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource John Gibson - Scilly and Penzance. Born in 1827 in the Aran Islands came to Scilly in 1840. Times were hard and moved to Penzance in 1860 and apprenticed to Robert Preston. Moved back to Scilly 1865-1870. Started photography with 2 sons specialising in dramatic shipwrecks, natural phenomena and the antiquities both of Scilly and West Cornwall. Standards were high. As business was good, another shop was opened on the promenade at Penzance in 1877. In 1879 moved to 10 Market Jew Street Penzance. John Gibson remained on and his sons moved between Scilly and Penzance. In 1910Gibson retired aged 83 and died in 1920 at St Buryan. The sons and grandsons continued and in 1925v the famous guide book was produced. The sons continued in business until 1958.

Title A name given to the resource Trevaskis Collection Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Morrab Library Description An account of the resource The surname comes from the farm of Trevaskis standing close by Gwinear parish. W.J. Trevaskis was in a geographically-constrained way a successful local photographer. Evidence exists of a carte de visit taken in 1863 although he was first listed as a photographer in 1883. The business was run from the Leedstown house now called 'An Gernyk'. From 1889 Trevaskis had a branch studio at Nettles Hill in Helston. Carte de visit imprints of the later 1870s or the 1880s announce that he was at Leedstown on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays; Porthleven, Tuesdays and Wednesdays; Breage on Fridays. Business continued into the early years of the 20th Century - it is not known when Mr Trevaskis died. The business was revived by his daughter Miss Polly Trevaskis who was listed as a photographer at Leedstown up to the start of the last war. Still Image A static visual representation.
