Hanes archifol
The Brogyntyn (Longueville) group consists of papers which were identified as Brogyntyn material within the several supplementary groups of Longueville papers deposited at NLW between 1942 and 1992. Items numbered 1/1 - 19/1 comprise the Brogyntyn (Longueville) group deposited by Messrs Longueville and Co., Oswestry, September 1958, catalogued 1958, amended 2003. Nos 20/1 - 71/3 comprise a continuation of the Brogyntyn (Longueville) group, assembled from the various deposits made between 1942 and 1992.
Both groups have been amalgamated in compliance with ISAD(G) standards but the sequence of numbering has been disrupted as a result.
