Photographs are comprised of card photographs, snapshots and copy prints of family members. They also include images of African American household employees, the 1927 Mississippi River Flood, and portraits of Gov. Sam Jones, Gov. John McKeithen and Senator Russell Long. Personal papers contain diaries, poems and notebooks. Legal and financial papers consist of land conveyances, inventories, receipts, invoices and statements for personal expenditures. There are also legal speeches made by Thomas W. Leigh (ca. 1973), funeral notices (1890-1927), wedding invitations, birth announcements, programs, and advertisements. A large part of the correspondence and photographs pertains to Daisy Emerson Grisham; her daughter, Louise Kellogg Leigh; and her granddaughter, Mary Stuart Kellogg.
