Description: John Hough Nightingall, his wife Dorothy and sons Jack and Theo. Images of the two sons as babies and school boys in Tasmania, other family members and friends. With their father in the gardens at Melbourne and with their mother, father and friends on picnics and outings. There are also images of Jack and Theo as young men in New Zealand. John Hough Nightingall is shown with work collegues in factories and in formal groups, and there are two images of Dorothy dressed in traditional Maori costume. A section in this collection relates to the time in the early 1930s when John Hough Nightingall was associated with the flax fibre industry in the Foxton area. These photographs show flax plants, mills and machinary, and bails of finished fibre. They also seem to indicate that the whole family was involved in this work. Later in the 1930s images show Theo and friends at the Apollo Club, at parties, on the beach, at weddings, with friends, and with collegues in front of the Leicagraph Studio, Wellington, where he worked. There are also holiday and tramping shots, cross-dressers at a Christmas party at James Smith store, Wellington, and others at a private party. Arrangement: Negatives associated with the flax industry images are at 1/4-107380-F to 1/4-107429-F, 1/2-198297-F to 1/2-198334-F, and 1/2-198819-F to 1/2-198838-F.
