Description
|
The following is a catalogue of the section of the archives of the Royal Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland at Ingliston, Midlothian, which relates to Gaelic matters. It is the material described in the handlist of the Society's papers prepared by the National Register of Archives for Scotland, pp. 3-4, as contained in a large parcel "on the floor against the back wall shelving". The handlist was issued in January 1968, when the Society's premises were at 8 Eglinton Crescent, Edinburgh; the material is now flattened and stored in archive boxes in the Society's strong-room in Ingliston House. It has been numbered and described exactly in the order in which the bundles were made up, probably in the 19th century, and the sequence and grouping established in the handlist has been maintained. MSS. A/1-21 consist chiefly of the Society's correspondence. Except where stated, it is addressed to an officer of the Society--usually the Depute Secretary, Lewis Gordon, or his nephew and successor Charles Gordon, frequently Henry Mackenzie as chairman of successive committees concerned with Gaelic matters, occasionally some other person such as Bannatyne, MacGregor Murray, the Secretary William Macdonald of St. Martins, or his successor Donald MacLachlan of MacLachlan. Also except where stated, the letters refer principally to dictionary matters. 'MacLeod' = Rev. Dr. John MacLeod. 'MacLachlan' = Ewen MacLachlan.
