professional photographer, was working at Glenorchy, Victoria, in about 1860-61. Early in 1862, when charged by the Victoria Police with having deserted his family, Targett was described as 'an Englishman aged 30, 5’ 9” [175 cm], rather thin build, light complexion, dark hair and rather sandy beard, whiskers and moustache’. A photographer, he was said to be travelling with his cart. No photographs have been identified but he is unlikely to have signed his work.
