    Default Photographer named Kohler?

    It's a long shot but does anyone have any old photos taken by a Kohler please? My G G Grandad was a portrait artist/photographer named Thomas Kohler (born 1838) and if I recall rightly one of his daughters was also a photographer. Thomas lived in Kent and in London from about 1860 and was previously living in his birthplace in Dublin. If anyone has a photo or postcard by a Kohler I'd be very interested to learn more - thank you.

    Thank you ever so much for your help! I can add that Thomas had an extra son and daughter too! I have searched and searched, from Google to Ebay and back, for any pictures by Thomas without success... I imagine he was one of the little guys or that he worked for a comapny, hence I can't find anything in his name. I shan't give up though!

    Again, thank you.
