By Robert K. Krick Fredericksburg Free Lance Star Date published: 12/17/2005 Used with permission. IN THE FALL of 2004, the annual issue of the local journal Fredericksburg History and Biography printed a dozen images taken in 1874 by photographer F. Theodore Miller and released as stereoviews. Those extremely important historic views focused on battlefield scenes, but also illustrated other buildings and sites in and around Fredericksburg. . Most of them had never been published before, nor even seen by modern historians and residents of the region. Fredericksburg collector Jerry Brent had purchased the stereoviews at auction, and allowed their reproduction in Fredericksburg History and Biography.. Backmarks on the stereoviews listed by name several other scenes in the series, in addition to those actually among the photographs discovered in 2004. Eric J. Mink, the accomplished Fredericksburg historian who wrote last year's article explaining the freshly discovered photographs, concluded by expressing the fond hope that some of those missing views would turn up eventually.. Amazingly, that happened within a fortnight after the 2004 journal appeared. Fredericksburg antiques dealer and bookman Bill Beck acquired nearly 200 Miller photos from an estate in Mathews County, and conveyed most of them to Jerry Brent. The prints proved to be the photographer's personal archive, Miller having moved from Fredericksburg to the Northern Neck and eventually to Mathews County. . Fourteen views from the latest Miller collection richly illustrate the newly released 2005 version--volume IV in the series of annual releases of Fredericksburg History and Biography. Several of them accompany this review. Historian Mink again wrote the accompanying journal article, which he titled "Southern Exposure: Miller's Photographic Images of Fredericksburg, Part II.". Mink traces photographer Miller's family to origins in Prussia, from whence they emigrated to Michigan before settling in 1853 just west of Five-Mile Fork in Spotsylvania County. By 1868, Theo, as Miller called himself, was practicing the photographic trade in Fredericksburg. The next year, he married a Morrison girl from near Salem Church. Early in 1870, the photographic business moved into a building on Main Street..
