"Frank Adair, the popular photographer, has purchased the Blankeney Studio, 15 W Main Street, Danville, Ill and has taken charge. After a residence of two years here, during which he operated the gallery in this city most successfully, building up a trade and reputation second to none, he recently sold his business to Mr. John Lewellyn, who is now in charge and purchased the Danville, Ill studio. Mr. Adair's ability assures him success in his new and larger field because the classof work he turns out soon brings him a large and appreciative class of customers. Covington can ill afford to lose the class of business men to which Mr. Adair belongs."

Covington Republican, 16 December 1904
"For Photograph Moulding, picture frames and enlarging - Try John Lewellen, the Photographer. All work guaranteed. Studio over Harter's Store, Covington."

Covington Friend, March 3, 1911
"John Lewellen who has conducted a photo gallery in this city for several years with much success has sold out to R. W. Burnett from Rockville, Ind, possession being given the first of this week. Mr. Lewellyn has not decided what his future course will be but his many friends in Covington are hoping he will not leave this city!"

The Professional Photographer, 20 Sept. 1938, p. 212 
"John Lewellyn death 14 June. Was Kokomo photographer for 28 yrs. And before that in Covington."
