Notes:
Album of late-19th century photographs, presumably depicting numerous members of an extended family based in and around Newcastle upon Tyne. None of the sitters is identified. A middle-aged couple depicted in one of the later photographs, on the recto of leaf two, may be the compilers (the young boy photographed on the verso may be their son). Photographs are primarily albumen prints and include a mixture of carte-de-viste and cabinet card formats. The photographers identified were generally active in the 1880s.
