Josiah Johnson Hawes

Josiah Johnson Hawes (1808–1901) was a photographer in Boston, Massachusetts.

The studio produced daguerreotype portraits of many notables, including Lemuel Shaw, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Daniel Webster, and others.

[3] The studio rooms overlooked "a fine orchard, belonging to the Gardiner Greene estate.

From these windows, facing Scollay Sq., we looked on the church and gardens of Brattle Street"[4] In 1849 Hawes married Nancy Niles Southworth (Albert’s sister).

[5] After the partnership with Southworth dissolved in 1863, Hawes continued as a photographer on Tremont Row for several decades, through the 1890s.
