history |
These papers were taken out of old chests, trunks and cabinets etc which were brought from the Old College of Edinburgh and stored in the apartments of the basement storey of General Register House in 1790 and were there 'examined and put up in bundles' by order of the clerks of session in Autumn 1806. |
|
Arrangement |
Originally known as MP and were numbered in a running order. It was decided to renumber them in the 1960s and list some of the collections down to item level. Some of the bundles themselves do have annotations to the report of 1806 (SRO5/11) and its sections A, B and C |
