Additional Manuscripts, Catalogue 28

Records of West Sussex Record Office additional manuscripts

INTRODUCTION

The class of Additional Manuscripts embraces all the smaller gifts and deposits of documents, as distinct from the large family and estate collections such as the Goodwood Estate Archives, or accumulations from solicitors' offices such as the Raper Manuscripts, or official deposits such as the records of West Sussex County Council, each of which is catalogued separately and referred to by name

This, the twenty eighth volume of the Catalogue of Additional Manuscripts, lists a considerable number of smaller deposits, many of them consisting of deeds of title, ranging in date from the 13th Century (Add Mss 23,799) to 1978 (Add Mss 25,228)

No index has been provided for this volume, as all the relevant details of this and all previous volumes, have been included in the card indexes of persons, places, manors and subjects which are to be found in the Search Room of the West Sussex Record Office

Searchers are again asked to exercise care in quoting references and to use the form indicated in the introduction to the first volume
