Scope and Contents

This index contains the names of the Society's foreign correspondents, from 1804-1897, arranged alphabetically. Note that the letters are mostly original 1804-1856, and mostly transcripts 1857-1897. The letters are to be found in the main Foreign Correspondence Inwards series D1/2, the copybooks D1/5-6, Agents Books D1/7, Editorial Correspondence Books E3/1, and the personal papers of Franz Delitzsch, John Paterson and John Shore, F3.

Copies of letters to these people are to be found in the main Outgoing letters series.
