Miscellaneous political and literary papers,

Political and literary documents, [1550x1600]-[1725x1750], which were accumulated by the Herbert families of Cherbury and Powis Castle, but which have not been securely attributed to either of them because of insufficient or indeterminate internal evidence and archival context.

Miscellany of verse, pedigrees, historical notes and records,

A dialogue on the death of Mrs Anne Humphries/Humphreys, 1698; a history of the family of Robert and Ieuan ap Maredudd of Cesailgyfarch and Cefnyfan; a pedigree of the Wynns of Gwydir and Berthddu, and the Lloyds of Rhiwaedog; a copy of a history of Owain Glyn Dŵr, attributed to Richard Davies (d. 1581), bishop of St Davids; copies of letters of Lord Charles Cornwallis (d. 1805) appointing John Jennings as his attorney to receive estate accounts at Broome Park, Suffolk, 1673, and his instructions, together with a copy of a letter appointing Charles Pigeon as steward; and copies of letters of Sir Stephen Fox appointing Charles Pigeon as steward at Naburne, Norfolk [?recte Yorkshire], 1673.

Politics,

Records and correspondence, 1646-1698, accumulated by members of the Herbert family of Powis Castle during the course of their political activities. Most of the papers relate to the sequestration of their estates after the civil war, while others arise from the Herberts’ commitment to the Jacobite cause during and after the ‘Glorious Revolution’.
