Calendars provide summaries full enough, for most purposes, to replace the original documents. These summaries are printed in chronological order and do not necessarily reflect the archival ordering of the documents (hence ‘calendar’). They are the primary finding aid for the records that they describe. The State Papers Domestic are the accumulated papers of the secretaries of state relating to home affairs. They contain information on every facet of early modern government. This series details records relating to the reign of Anne, and specifically the period 1702-4.
