An amateur photographer. Prior to the Daguerreobase project there were no known extant photographs by this photographer.
His father (born 1801) was also called William Thomas. It is possible his father was also a daguerreotypist. When the son died he was described in Amateur photographer as the oldes amateur photographer (see: 1920, 4 June, ‘Death of the Oldest Amateur Photographer‘, BJP, vol. 67, p. 350).
