Thomas Singleton


Thomas Singleton was born in the Isle of Wight in 1846, the fifth son of Peter Singleton and Elizabeth Grant. Between 1851 and 1861 he moved with his mother and one elder brother, Charles to Guernsey. It is not known why they moved to Guernsey or what happened to his father.

Thomas married Anne Hamilton from Northern Ireland in January 1868. They had six children – Mary (1868–1947), Thomas (1870–1949), Ursula (1873–1960), Hamilton (1875–1949), Robert (1876–1941) and Frances (1879–1885).

He was an active photographer in Jersey, Alderney and Sark, as well as in his home island. He was helped in Guernsey with the printing by his wife and in later years by two of his children, Mary and Hamilton.
