Description: | HO 42. Letters and papers. |
Note: | To limit repetition in the Catalogue, individual addressees working in the Home Office have not normally been named at item level. In this Piece, except where stated, correspondence received directly by the Home Office had either been addressed to William Wyndham Grenville (Home Secretary) or Evan Nepean (Under-Secretary), or the addressee had not been identifiable from the surviving text. Original addressees outside the Home Office of material subsequently passed there are always stated where identifiable. This Piece comprises 3 distinct runs of material: Items 1 to 70 consist of routine correspondence for the period; Items 72 to 130 consist of reports by William Clark and George Parker of surveillance in the autumn of 1790, mainly of Colonel Francisco Miranda; Items 131 to 202 consist of correspondence relating to the claims of Thomas Augustus Smith Murray to a pension on the grounds of being a natural son of Frederick, the late Prince of Wales. |
Date: | 1790 Sept 01-1790 Dec 31 |
Arrangement: |
The digital images of these records were taken from old microfilm copies. A later cataloguing project restored the chronological arrangement of the papers and re-foliated the pages. As a result, the folio numbering of the catalogue descriptions for individual items does not match the numbering of the digital images, and some images may appear out of sequence. |
