Notes

Catalogue data comes from a combination of entries in the original glass plate registers, metadata created when the glass plates were digitised in the early 2000s and enhancements made by the cataloguer in 2020. The depicted person was previously misidentified as Sir William Beatty (1773-1842), naval surgeon on HMS Victory.
