Scope and content
Volume intitled 'Inventory of the deeds, papers & books contained in the drawers & closets in the study at Tredegar'. Page headings have been prepared for drawers 1-23, although drawers 10-17 and 23 have no descriptions, and some of the other drawers have very cursory descriptions, including 'Medals & coins' (drawer 5), 'Miscellaneous articles & curiosities' (drawer 6) and 'Map book of the Breconshire estate & book of reference thereto' (drawer 19). The deeds and other documents are in the range 1500-1843, and on p. 12 is a note initialled by Octavius Morgan, 20 Sept. 1846. -- Loose papers include 'New arrangements of the contents of the drawers & cupboards in the study at Tredegar', [watermark 1832], which appears to agree with the arrangement of the drawers in the volume, and a list of deeds and papers relating to the estate in Monmouthshire and Glamorgan, delivered by Frederick Justice to Sir Charles Morgan, 14 Feb. 1845, annotated with drawer numbers, although these deeds do not appear to have been noted in the volume.
