OriginalSource: Craig's Daguerreian Registry, Current research shows that the Webster brothers opened a daguerreian gallery in Evansville, Ind., over Mrs. Kollenberg's confectionary store on Main Street, in December, 1850. They advertised at that time they had been engaged "in the Daguerreotype business for the last five years, in the city of New York, and vicinity." (No record of their operation in New York City has ever been located). They had several daguerreotypes on display, including one of Jenny Lind, an image of General Taylor, one of General Johnston of Pennsylvania, and one of the birthplace of Benedict Arnold. Evansville, Ind., was directly across the river from Louisville, Ken., and the brothers opened a gallery at 489 Main Street, Louisville, in 1851. The gallery was adjacent to the store of Hegan and Escott, a major dealer in daguerreian equipment and supplies. The Louisville gallery, over Stampin and Kiffin's store, was active until at least 1856. Current research leans toward the theory that E.Z. Webster maintained a permanent studio in Evansville in the 1851-1852 period, and may have lived there as well. In September and October, 1852, E.Z. Webster was listed in partnership as Webster and Miles in Evansville, at the corner of Main and First Streets. Sometime in 1852, his daughter was also born in Indiana. In November, 1852, daguerreian J.M. McCluer referred to his location as "formerly occupied by Webster's Gallery"; and F.J. Chapman in December, 1852, noted his location as "formerly occupied by Webster and Miles." In March, 1853, McDonald noted his location was "formerly occupied by Mr. Webster."

In 1858 they noted a new gallery over Hegan and Escott's store, where they operated through 1860. The pair apparently worked together as photographers in Louisville until approximately 1870, when E.Z. Webster returned to Norwich, Conn., and was active as a stereo photographer.

Lengthy letter from E. Z. Webster, the daguerreotypist, to editor Sanders  thanking Evansville citizens from their patronage to him. "allow me to recommend to their kind consideration my friend, Mr. Tileston, who succeeds me in the rooms I occupited. He certainly possesses all the necessary requirements for a successful daguerreotypist, and it only requires -- what he certainly deserves, the patronage of those citizens who may require the services of a daguerreotypist, to make him become a successful operator. This is testimony enough in behalf of Mr. Tileston, but we may add our own so far as to say, we have seen a number of pictures taken by him which we thought fully as good as Webster's own, and that is a high compliment. Mr. T. can be found at the old rooms above the marble works, where he is daily turning out elegant likenesses.--Give him a call."
