The bulk of the Photographs subseries consists of personal photographs taken by either Ewan MacColl or Peggy Seeger. They document family activities at home and while travelling. As such, the images provide a glimpse into the domestic life of the MacColl/Seeger family. There are images of children playing in the family garden; the family hiking, rock climbing and sunbathing; and trips to the zoo and the local park and woods. There are also images of the Stewart traveller family and the coal-mining Elliott family who came know to MacColl and Seeger through singing. Other folk singers are also documented. All five of MacColl's children are depicted in the images as are Betsy Miller and Charles Seeger and Peggy's siblings Mike, Barbara, and Penny. Includes digital files.

Materials consist of black and white and color contact prints, contact sheets, negatives, prints, and slides.
