Catalogue description NEWDEGATE OF ARBURY

This record is held by Warwickshire County Record Office

Details of CR 136
Reference: CR 136
Title: NEWDEGATE OF ARBURY
Date: 12th-20th Centuries
Arrangement:

The Newdegate collection was listed and arranged by J. Harvey Bloom at Arbury about 1905-6. The main part was received in the County Record Office in 1950 on loan for safekeeping: it arrived in flat boxes covered in blue cloth, much affected by damp. Bloom's original arrangement was in the following general classes:

 

A : volumes of all kinds, large and small.

 

B : correspondence, family and estate papers.

 

C : deeds and manorial records.

 

D : printed material, with some recent deeds and manorial records.

 

E : maps and plans.

 

THIS ARRANGEMENT WAS SUBSEQUENTLY ALTERED IN THE FOLLOWING WAY:

 

Class A : now contains only small volumes, the larger volumes having been put into a new V class, so that the present A class is quite small, and the numbering has many gaps. At the end, from A[500] onwards are small volumes which were found to have lost their old adhesive numbers or never to have had a reference.

 

Class B : These have remained unaltered.

 

Class C : These have remained unaltered.

 

Class D : These have remained unaltered.

 

Class E : has been abolished.

 

Class M : now contains maps and plans.

 

Class V : contains larger volumes, chiefly estate accounts.

 

Bloom's list of the collection was lost before the records were deposited at Warwick and has been partly replaced by a new brief finding list compiled by J.H. Hodson in 1950. However, Bloom's manuscript index to his list has survived and is now bound in 2 volumes for use This index gives quite full descriptions of items but cannot be regarded as comprehensive and has many errors which includes, for instance, giving the same number to two different documents. The index is most useful and reliable for Classes B, C and D which have not been disturbed since it was compiled; but it contains no cross-references from the old A and E classes to the new A, M and V classes. This can cause considerable confusion and in some cases it may not be possible to produce documents by the old reference numbers given in the Index. However, Classes A, M and V have been fairly fully listed which will usually enable searchers to find the correct reference to the document they want.
