The J. C. Knowles Photograph Collection consists in a collection of glass plate negatives dating from ca. 1900 through the late 1910s, attributed to Wharton & Tyree Studio and Tyree Studio of Raleigh, NC. Based on the age of the negatives, where they were found initially, and a notation on one of the plates, it is likely they were all created by Wharton’s Gallery, 1886-1905, Wharton & Tyree Studio, 1905-1912, and Tyree Studio, 1912-1916 of Raleigh, North Carolina.

Cyrus P. Wharton (1852-1929) operated one of the best-equipped and largest photography studios in North Carolina beginning with Wharton’s Gallery on Fayetteville Street in downtown Raleigh in 1886. In 1905 he partnered with Manly W. Tyree (1877-1916) and operated as the Wharton & Tyree Studio. Wharton appears to have retired in 1911, and Tyree continued on alone as the Tyree Studio until his death.

1- Wharton’s gallery (1886- 1905)

2- Wharton & Tyree Studio (1905-1911)

3- Tyree Studio (1912-1916)
