In all chance I’ll do one thing on spirit images sooner or later, and I’m additionally very involved in W.S. “Dad” Lively (1855-1944), who operated a studio in McMinnville, Tennessee beginning within the 1870s and based the pioneering Southern School of Photography in 1904. Several of my ancestors and relations lived in McMinnville and environs, and to my shock and preliminary disbelief, one in every of my great-grandfathers gave “photographer” as his occupation as early as 1870, although he later went on to do different issues, in order that’s a subject I intend to discover.
