Description: The visits of Thomas, Edith and John Henry Hume There is much confusion and incorrect information circulating re this family. Edith Hume (née Dunn) (1841-1913) was a Truro girl and she and her husband, Thomas Oliver Hume (c.1833-1916), and his son from his first marriage, John Henry Hume (1858-1881), visited St Ives a number of times during the 1870s and 1880s, albeit they lived in Petersfield, Hampshire. All three exhibited St Ives scenes at the Royal Academy. In 1872, Edith exhibited St Ives Sandwoman at the SBA, whilst, in 1874, she exhibited A St Ives Fishgirl at the RSA. In the main, though, it is difficult to tell the location of her subjects from her titles, but the sketch in Academy Notes of her 1885 Royal Academy exhibit, Preparing the Tackle, certainly places this scene in St Ives. In 1878, John Henry Hume exhibited A Peep at St Ives at the Royal Academy and a St Ives subject at Bristol in 1879, whilst Thomas exhibited Near St Ives and Moorland, nr Hayle at the SBA in 1873 and St Ives Bay at the Royal Academy in 1888. The latter would appear to depict a man loading a hay cart above St Ives, with a view across to Godrevy, and is a fine work.
