RelatedMaterialThe catalogue descriptions in this collection were taken from T. Walter Hall, 'Catalogue of the Charters, Deeds and Manuscripts in the Public Reference Library at Sheffield' (J. W. Northend, 1912) (Sheffield Local Studies Library: 016.94274 SST / Sheffield City Archives: HAL / PRINT SOURCE)
CustodialHistoryThese documents were donated to, or purchased by Sheffield Libraries. There is no record of where they came from or at what date they were donated, other than a sparse accession register entry at nos. 1672 - 1682. It is possible they were purchased from Sir Thomas Phillipps' via Sotheby's in the 1890s. The accession register and the original typescript catalogues suggest that MD1 - MD233 were acquired this way.
