This series contains photographs of several generations of the Riggins and Darracott families at various ages, as well as group photographs of several generations of the families gathered at Mosswood, the family estate.
Also included are numerous photographs of Mosswood which document the changes it had undergone since its construction in 1904. One of the most significant of those changes was the physical move of the structure from one location to another in 1952 after the land on which it stood for nearly half a century had been sold. Photographs documenting that move are located in a folder labeled "Mosswood on the Move."
The photographs are arranged alphabetically by name or subject and chronologically within folders. The photo above is of Mann Riggins, father of Norman Riggins, c. 1890.
The folder title list for this series cannot be reproduced here due to limitations imposed by the City of Lakeland's web editing software. A complete folder title list is available in Special Collections.
