On a recent trip to the Essex Police Museum I was pleasantly surprised to find not only Canvey represented in the presentation but details from one of our articles was used.

Painting of the Superintendant of Rochford Division Samuel Hawtree who served from 1864-1896 standing in Canvey Village, painted 1890

Actual photo of Samuel Hawtree as you can see the painting is a very good likeness. Perhaps the photo was used for the painting.
