A news item about his retirement says Nyemetz work “for years” in training with some Philadelphia photographers, learning oils and photography. He then opened his studio at 35 W Third Street in Chester, PA, for his entire career even during the brief time when he was partnered with photographer Thomas McCollin in 1886. The news item says Nyemetz closed his studio when he turned 80, in 1942.
So from about 1886 until 1942, the studio was in operation at 35 W Third Street in Chester, PA.
