His Store and Studio was located at 115 Tenth Street with a similar one in Wasagamimg at Clear Lake, in the Riding National Park where during the summer he sold and developed film for the tourists.
He has become a valued friend of local history because he took black and white photos of subjects at Clear Lake and Brandon, which he published on postcards, and then sold, in his stores.
He was born in London England, and Immigrated to Brandon in 1931, and opened his photography business the following year.
Mr. Jerrett died on December 23rd 1958 after a short illness when he was in his seventy third year.
