Andrew Jackson Davis Spirit Photo

"Who are these two gentlemen?

All Spiritualists should all know them. Alfred Kitson (known as the father of the British Lyceum Movement) had a sitting in the William Hope circle in Crewe and, would you believe, Andrew Jackson Davis (the American founder of the Lyceum Movement) popped in to say 'hello'!

A photograph for Union records."

- Vi Kipling

These images of spirits and ghosts are from a lost Spiritualist archive of original glass plate photographs. The history of some of these remarkable spirit manifestations has been lost.

Alfred Kitson (1855 - 1934) Lyceum's were opened in 1870 at Keighley and Sowerby Bridge in England. Alfred Kitson attended the first anniversary of the latter in 1871 and thereafter devoted himself to this cause. He began to develop a system of Lyceum teaching here based upon the American model of Andrew Jackson Davis. (See History Of Spiritualism)

Did you know that it is rumoured that Andrew Jackson Davis met and advised Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War? Spiritualists quote a number of early sources that mentioned that Davis had visited the White House to meet with Lincoln and that Lincoln visited Davis when he was in New York. Read a little about the ghost of Abraham Lincoln: Abraham Lincoln Ghost Train

Many thanks to the Spiritualist Vi Kipling for discovering and obtaining permission to use these spirits images.
