Custodial history: |
The Fitzjohns Estate in Essex was sold by Sir Spencer Maryon-Wilson in 1900. Most of the records relating to the Maryon-Wilson property in Essex formerly kept at the Charlton Estate Office were deposited in the Essex Record Office in 1952. Family papers, including correspondence 1578 - 1780 and papers relating to Sussex elections, have been deposited in the British Library (ref. Add Mss 49605-49608). Many books and manuscripts formerly part of the Library at Charlton House appear to have been dispersed, when the contents of Charlton House were sold in 1920 (see E/MW/C/1818). Selected books and documents were taken by Sotheby's in December 1919. The remainder of the library was included in the sale by Stevens in February 1920. |
