Raised in 1817, the "Newcastle
and Northumberland Volunteer Cavalry" changed their
name to "Northumberland Hussars" in 1876.
Uniforms are dark blue with white lace
; busbies sport scarlet bags, and white over red plumes.
Paul Stabler and Martin Fries were born
in Germany - they migrated to England and settled in Sunderland.
Brothers-in-law, and both photographers, it seems they operated
as an association at 63, St.John Street, in 1879 and 1880.
