Overview
This series of correspondence consists of all unregistered letters received by the Colonial Museum on a wide range of subjects.
Why these letters were not registered is not known, though some appear to be of a non-official nature.
The general lack of staffing may also have contributed to a situation where some letters were never actually registered.
