<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 118139, member: 44&quot;]Haven&#039;t had luck on finding info on Rowe or any of the men. Did find info on the photographer. He was Robert Milne who seens to have been in business in Hamilton from around 1851 to at least 1879. In the later years his son worked with him. Possibly his son might have carried on the Photography studio under the same name after his father was long gone??</p><p><a href="http://www.photographersofontario.ca/index.php/Robert_Milne" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.photographersofontario.ca/index.php/Robert_Milne" rel="nofollow">http://www.photographersofontario.ca/index.php/Robert_Milne</a></p><p><br /></p><p>A CDV by Milne online is printed with the company location as &quot;Hamilton, CW&quot; that dates it before 1867.</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;C.W. represents Canada West, the term used for Ontario prior to Confederation of 1867&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>No doubt most of you may have known the above, but it was news to me - my trivia for the day.</p><p><a href="http://cabinetofcuriosities.ca/shop/photography/reverend-e-b-harper-idd-photo/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cabinetofcuriosities.ca/shop/photography/reverend-e-b-harper-idd-photo/" rel="nofollow">http://cabinetofcuriosities.ca/shop/photography/reverend-e-b-harper-idd-photo/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Another Milne CDV:</p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/CDV-1870s-Scottish-officer-medals-Robert-Milne-photographer-Hamilton-Ontario-/231606881890?nma=true&amp;si=w0khVg2cnSpDVbZpEpMNx5uXXsQ%253D&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2047675.l2557" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/CDV-1870s-Scottish-officer-medals-Robert-Milne-photographer-Hamilton-Ontario-/231606881890?nma=true&amp;si=w0khVg2cnSpDVbZpEpMNx5uXXsQ%253D&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2047675.l2557" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/CDV-1870s-Scottish-officer-medals-Robert-Milne-photographer-Hamilton-Ontario-/231606881890?nma=true&amp;si=w0khVg2cnSpDVbZpEpMNx5uXXsQ%3D&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2047675.l2557</a></p><p><br /></p><p>BTW, Royal Arch is the 1st part of the York Rite of Masonry. Some take the York Rite route and others go through the Scottish Rite of extended Masonry. My father went York Rite up in Massachusetts back in the 1930s, and DH did the Scottish Rite in Tennessee in the 1960s.</p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
