Series 1A - Personal Correspondence
|
|
|
Contains JDM's correspondence with friends and family members, as well as some professional contacts who shared a personal
relationship with the MacDonalds. Correspondents are filed alphabetically by last name (if available - first name or initial
if not). When searching for a particular correspondent, it is recommended to search under both first and last names (including
variations on nicknames), as many letters are not formally signed and are, therefore, difficult to identify. Correspondents
who are particularly important or with whom there is a large amount of material are filed in their own individual files.
