This second group of Thomas Jones's papers was deposited at NLW by Lady White and Mr Tristan Jones after the main collection had been catalogued. The deposit was turned into a donation in 1984. The system of cataloguing used for the additional papers has been based upon that used by Professor Gwyn A. Williams for the main collection. A double lettering system has been used to facilitate cross referencing; thus AA equates to the original class A, CC to the original class C, etc. It has been necessary to create another class called Misc for miscellaneous items which have not been added to the original class structure. In addition WW 32 is a group of miscellaneous correspondence which was discovered after the rest of the general correspondence had been catalogued. Some of the papers in Group 2 have been bound in volumes, others have been placed in files or boxed. This list supersedes the temporary list compiled in 1985. The permission of the Librarian is required to see classes AA, CC, EE, GG.

Evan Probert (?1764-1827) was possibly the son of Evan and Margaret Probert; if so, he was baptised in Rhaeadr in 1764, and came of a line traceable back to David Probert of Worcester. He married Anne Beale, daughter of the Rev. William Beale, curate of Newent. He was the brother of Jane who married into the James family, and of Emma who married into the Bowring family. Evan resided first at Painswick, co. Glouc., and then at Kempsey, co. Worcs, where he kept a school. He suffered mental illness and died in 1827 whilst an inmate of Gloucester Asylum.

In the autumn of 1826, Henry went to work abroad as a medical man. In 1827, he was private secretary to Colonel King, governor of Heligoland. No children of the marriage are known. No's 1457-1508 are papers primarily relating to Emma Bowring (née Probert) (1794-1870). She was born at Painswick, co. Glouc., on 8 May 1794, the daughter of Evan and Ann Probert. Emma married John Raphael Bowring on 21 June 1827 at Flaxley, co. Glouc., and they had at least two children.
