Content description
Letters of Judith Goodin Barrett about events in Jamaica, her arrival in England and concerns for her grandsons Edward and Samuel in England; possibly these papers were inherited by Edward Moulton Barrett from his grandmother Judith Goodin Barrett
Arrangement
These papers originally formed part of an amalgamated chronological series described as ‘The Jamaica papers’, arranged for the process of publication in the 1960s. In 2025 they were substantially re-arranged and re-catalogued in order to respect archival provenance, original order, context and improve clarity and access for researchers. In this process, Judith Barrett’s papers have been separated from the Jamaica papers to form their own series.
