HALL, James Deakin
Photographed the Bell Farm during harvest time, 1883.
James D. Hall (1854-1936), was born in Londonderry, Ireland, and moved to Ontario, Canada in 1867. In 1881 he moved to Winnipeg, and a year later joined Skene Lowe to form the photographic partnership of Hall and Lowe, who photographed the West until 1892, when Hall moved to Vancouver to become its sheriff.
Hall and Lowe took the first known photographs of the Bell Farm during the harvest of 1883.
