EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Sheffield City Archives takes us back to 1852, capturing a moment in time for the Hayball family. The image showcases Mr and Mrs John Hayball, Mr and Mrs Thomas Hayball, and Mrs Hannah Hayball with her daughters Edith, Miriam, and Laura. They are all gathered on the backsteps of their home at 50 (later 112) Hanover Street. What makes this photograph particularly remarkable is that it is one of the earliest known photographs taken in Sheffield. It was skillfully captured by Arthur Hayball himself, who happened to be Hannah's husband. This intimate family portrait provides a glimpse into their lives during this era. The attire worn by each member of the family reflects the fashion trends of the time. Men don elegant suits complete with top hats while women showcase their stylish dresses adorned with bonnets or hats as well. Their costumes serve as a visual representation of societal norms and class distinctions prevalent during that period. As we observe this group photograph, we can't help but appreciate how photography has allowed us to preserve moments like these throughout history. The backdrop of Hanover Street adds an authentic touch to this snapshot from Sheffield's city center
