A large family photo was taken at "Osmington Farm" on the occasion of John RIggs' 86th birthday on 22 October 1900. In addition, there is an annotated list of most of the 93 people in the photograph with their ages.

This page is to capture an electronic list of the people in the photo, and track which of them have Wikitree profiles.

If there was a Riggs one-name study, this should be part of it. Photo: Image:Riggs-3845.jpg Legend: Image:Riggs-3845-1.jpg
