Correspondence, 1895-1945; 1996

Component identifier:

Series 2

Content Summary:

This large series comprises letters exchanged between Sir Brudenell and Lady White together with letters from family, friends, colleagues and a small amount of business correspondence. There are also a number of folders of correspondence removed from White's archive and grouped by Rosemary Derham during the course of her research for her biography of him. Folders have been retained as created by White and Derham.

Immediate source of acquisition:

The papers were acquired in several instalments from the family of Sir Brudenell White. The first large instalment was received in 1976 from White's daughter, Rosemary, Lady Derham. This was followed by small additions to the collection in 1979, 1982, 1984 and 1989. In 1999 Lady Derham added the remaining papers she held to the collection. A further small addition was received in 2003 from White's grandson, Mark Derham.
