Abernethy cabinet card footers

William Abernethy used the Royal Warrant seal after 1900, so a cabinet card with no seal suggests the photo would have been taken prior to 1900, unless old card stock was being used up. He started his photographic business in 1885.

Where a number is left out, this is how the address appeared in the directory. Same surnames, with different forenames have been listed as in directory (in some cases, though, it was obvious that it was the same person, so full name given. Address is followed by the year, in brackets, that the photographer was listed in the trades section, under Artist pre 1897, with the exception of 1866. Photographer was marked either c/*, in some cases bold. These have been included, even if inaccurate, only excluding those that only appeared once with a mark, yet numerous times in other years without a mark. Photographer titles differing from one another have been listed at their respective addresses, separately. Information sourced from PRONI website, 1901 sourced from Lennon Wylies website. Note that the use of 1901, is not an end date in some cases.

Interestingly, some of the photographers are also listed under Opticians. Lizars and Cumine being examples. Photographers may have had branches, that do not appear on trades listing. These would need to be looked up individually on the PRONI website. Directories can only be used as a rough estimation of when a photographer was in business, as it is always possible that a photographer had not listed their business due to costs.
