Title A name given to the resource Pye Collection Description An account of the resource The collection consists of 422 photos which were donated by the St Just in Rosalind and St Mawes Heritage Group. The collection consists of images of people and views from a number of photographers who were working in Cornwall from the mid 19th Century. It seems that almost every town in Cornwall had one or more photographers working in studios. Brooks, Beringer, Burrow, Collenso, Gibson and Preston are just some of those. Many won awards for their work and won medals awarded by the Cornwall Polytechnic Society which opened in Falmouth in 1833. Carte-de-visite became very popular after 1854, often used as calling cards containing the photographic mount, there are many examples of this type. It is apparent that people turned up in their "Sunday Best" to be photographed , it is interesting to note the fashion changes over time from the Victorian era to the Edwardian. All the while changes were taking place with the photographic process, from plate and gradually to film and negative and the digital process that we have today. This collection is a very interesting record of the work of the Victorian photographer. Still Image A static visual representation.

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.

Her working life was spent at the Bank of England. When she eventually moved back to Cornwall she first lived in Truro before finally returning to Pendeen, where she immersed herself in the local community, being an active member of her church, the W.I. and several local history groups. Morrab Library holds the publications of the Penwith Local History Group: 'Growing Up in West Cornwall', 'West Cornwall in the Twentieth Century', and 'Homes and households in west Cornwall'. All of these include articles written by Carlene, taken from her father's memories of Carnyorth and other related material. Her second cousin was Raymond Harry who, under the pseudonym Jack Penhale, wrote 'The Mine Under the Sea', based on his experience working at Levant Mine as a 14 year old during the 1st World war. He was there at the time of the Levant Mine Disaster. On her death in August 2020, Carlene left generous bequests to 7 local charities, confirming again her love of Cornwall and West Penwith in particular. Still Image A static visual representation.
