Scope and content
Letters addressed simply to 'Madam', all of which appear to have been intended for members of the Myddelton and Lloyd families and their associates. Many of them were meant for Mary Myddelton, but others were clearly not, and in most cases it is not clear which are which, even when annotated in Mary Myddelton's own hand (which sometimes appears on letters addressed to people other than herself); some letters are from Mary Myddelton herself; others mention her in the third person or date from after her death; and others are copies or drafts written on a sheet of paper from a previous letter, so that the real intended addressee is not always the apparent one.
