The photographs consist of collected miscellaneous photographs. A file list is available with a complete listing. Broadly, the photographs depict scenes in Victoria, Esquimalt, and Saanich, pioneer groups and families, and shipping. There are a few photographs of the Chinese cemetery and Chinese missionaries. A number of the ship photographs are identified as being created by Jones and Company (or Jones Brothers). Some of the photographs were originally packaged in boxes and envelopes labeled with “A.H. Maynard.” The eighth box was stamped "F.V. Longstaff - Major Longstaff" and some of the negatives appear to feature Longstaff's handwriting.
