Photocopied correspondence and papers

The arrangement of papers into bundles is basically that left by Sue Goldie. Within each bundle, letters are kept in chronological order. Undated letters ascribed a particular month are placed after all other letters from that month; material dated only to the year is held after all other items from that year. No attempt has been made to arrange letters in the precise order in which they may occur in Goldie's calendar.

The photocopies listed below were made for Sue Goldie of the Wellcome Institute in the process of her compilation of A calendar of the letters of Florence Nightingale (Oxford: OMP, 1977). The greater part of them are of documents held by the Verney family at Claydon House, Buckinghamshire, with whom copyright rests.

Copyright in these letters rests chiefly with the holders of the original documents; in most cases this is the Verney family of Claydon House, Buckinghamshire.
