References in my
Bradbourne collection |

There are many documents
to put up and list, it will take time. Each of the listed items is linked to
a copy of the reference. |
| |
|
All the references listed
following are of copies of original documents formerly held in the archives
of the Sevenoaks Library and Museum during the 1960's. As far as I am
aware these documents were later transferred to Springfield, Maidstone
subsequent to the death of the Sevenoaks librarian Mr. Lawrence. I
have very few original documents that came to me from various sources, those
I do have are identified in the following index. |
