Subject: Watson Bros. (photographer) date at address needed.

I have a picture of my grandmother, and I'm trying to narrow down the date
that it was probably taken.
On the bottom it has printed:
Watson Bros., 85, Argyle St., and 241 Grange Road, Birkenhead

Does anyone have access to directories which would show the above
photographer at the above address sometime between 1901 and 1907. My
grandmother was living in Isle of Man in 1901, and emigrated to Canada in
May 1907. In between those dates, she was living (and teaching school) in
Birkenhead.

I checked the Liverpool photographers on-line, and Gore's directory for 1909
shows: Watson Bros., 241a Grange Road and 85, Argyle St., Birkenhead. In
1900, the Gores's directory shows a listing for Watson & Lockley on Argyle
St., Birkenhead.

Thanks,
Kathy
