James Mudd & Sons

James Mudd & Sons was established in 1873, when James Willis Mudd joined his father James in his photographic studio. The company employed an assistant, George Grundy, around 1880. Grundy eventually became the manager of James Mudd & Sons and took over the ownership of the company in around 1900. The company name changed to G Grundy & Sons in 1906, on the death of James Mudd.
