Scope and content

These letters have been largely subdivided according to their writers. They are mainly concerned with business and financial matters. The subsection entitled 'Other family letters' includes those written by relatives who were not Ormsbys. Attention should be drawn to the letterbooks of Adam Ormsby as they cover a period of more that 12 years and are two continuous series, containing over 200 letters.
