  • Notes 
    • STATUS: Commercial.
    • BIOGRAPHICAL SUMMARY: Foiled, apparently, in an attempt to erect a studio on the roof of a building on Cordova St., E.H. and brothers George and Gilbert put their studio in the Chamberlain building and called themselves the Stanley Brothers.

      All three moved to Nelson in 1892-1893 and continued to practice photography until about 1895. E.H. then took up mining.
