EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the late 1890s captures a moment in time for the Chenoweth family, residents of Little Treveal in Cubert, Cornwall. The family group is beautifully posed outside their charming thatched cottage, surrounded by their beloved dogs. It is believed that this photograph immortalizes the Chenoweth family, who were an integral part of the local community during this era. The details provided by Kellys Directories shed light on two prominent members of the Chenoweth household. Stephen Chenoweth, a skilled carpenter, resided in Treveal between 1893 and 1910. His craftsmanship likely contributed to the construction or maintenance of their picturesque home. Another notable figure within the family was Arthur Chenoweth, described as both a bus proprietor and farmer. The Victorian fashion worn by each member adds an air of elegance to this snapshot from history. The women don long dresses with intricate patterns while men sport formal suits and hats. Their attire reflects societal norms and customs prevalent during that period. Although we are unable to credit a specific photographer for capturing this remarkable image, its preservation at Royal Cornwall Museum allows us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also its artistic value
