About the event
Come and hear the fascinating tale of William Henry De Lan and his Daughters, a family of travelling photographers who eventually settled in Tweedmouth at the end of the 19th century. All based on research by Cameron Robertson. The talk will look at the family's journey from Bradford, through the North East and the Borders to Berwick. It will also explore some of their extended family members who also followed the same trade. We'll also take a look at other mobile studios which found their way to England's most northerly town.
