Series I depicts 19th century "views" of Southern Florida and Staten Island. The photographs are visual documents of South Florida flora and fauna, native Seminole Indians, Bahamian settlers as well as the early European residents of Coconut Grove. Images of the first pioneering families such as the Peacocks, Frows, Carneys and Sanders are featured in these early traces of Florida history. The Munroe family homestead, the Barnacle, now an historic state park, is extensively featured in boxes 1 and 2. Finally, the photographs also depict the many yachts designed by Ralph Munroe, the founder of the Biscayne Bay Yacht Club. (Arranged according to Mr. Munroe's groupings and titles).
