William B. Eastman was recorded as a daguerreian in Boston, Mass., 1847-1860. In 1847 he was listed as a daguerreotype artist at the corner of Court and Howard Streets. In 1848-1849 he was listed at 11-1/2 Tremont Row in 1849-1850 he listed no business address. In 1850-1851 he was listed at 2 Blanchard's Block, in partnership as Hadley (S.D.) and Eastman. He was listed alone at the same address (103 Court Street) from 1851 to 1853. From 1854 to 1860 he was listed as Eastman & Co. at 75 Court Street. He is also reported to have operated Plumbe's Gallery at 75 Court Street at some point (probably 1847). "Eastman" and "Eastman & Co." have both been noted stamped on daguerreotype mats.
