Feature Expedition

AM Registers - Correspondence - Vol 12 Fiche 4 of 4 (1921-1925)

Field notesAustralian Museum Archives Collection

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people should be aware that this expedition may contain images, and names of deceased persons. Some material in this expedition may contain content such as images, words, descriptions and terms which may be culturally sensitive and reflect an authors’ views, or those of the period in which the content was created, but may not be considered appropriate today.

This expedition aims to transcribe the Australian Museum's register of letters received from 1883-1888 (AMS015) and 1889-1926 (AMS020). Volumes are organised alphabetically by name and in chronological order by the date they were received. Some letters have been destroyed, these are noted in this register. The transcription of these registers will enhance findability of specific letters in the Australian Museum's archival collection.
