WCC, Reports, working papers and correspondence

Descriptive Data

Archives Identifier00766Date Range1877-1911DescriptionThis series consists of early correspondence that cannot be linked back to the registered correspondence system of filing (Series 00233) or linked to any other series. Most of the items are draft working papers and correspondence, but there are also some reports. The documents are written by or relate to various officers of the Corporation, including the Town Clerk, City Solicitor and City Engineer.

While some of the correspondence has references that match it to the Early Correspondence records (Series 00233), most of the correspondence does not. It suggests the early correspondence letters were held with these papers while the issues were being worked on or resolved.

Papers have been left grouped according to the subject or work they relate to; each item may contain a number of letters or documents. Items are given an overview description rather than every document being described.
