George H Slight when he looked back in 1866 on the founding of EPS
referred to there being four founding Members. Who did he refer to?
Presumably
one was J T Taylor, the first Secretary.
It was in a room behind his watchmaker’s shop that the
inaugural meeting of EPS had been held on 20 February 1861. JT
Taylor
JT
Taylor was Joint Secretary, then Secretary, of EPS, 1861-63, and
remained on the EPS Council for a further year. Was this the same
gentleman as:
-
J
Trail Taylor, Treasurer and Secretary of Dumfries & Galloway
Photographic Society for its brief existence in 1857?
-
John T Taylor, Council Member of South London Photographic Society
1869-70?
