Friedrich Wigger (17 June 1825 - 24 September 1886) was a north German archivist. During the second half of the nineteenth century he served as archivist in charge of the "Großherzogliche Geheime und Hauptarchiv Schwerinin Mecklenburg", the precursor to the Central State Archive of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. Wigger was also a local historian and genealogist, noted in particular for his "Stammtafeln des Großherzoglichen Hauses von Meklenburg" ("Genealogies of the Grand Ducal House of Mecklenburg").[1][2][3]
