Show detail Hide detail

Sub-series consists of despatches and enclosures received by the Lieutenant Governor of New Brunswick or the Chief Administrative Officer of the Colony from the Secretary of State for the Colonies, the Governor-in-Chief of Canada, the British Minister at Washington, other Governors and Lieutenant Governors and other officials both public and private. Portions of this sub-series duplicate the "Despatches" found in the Colonial Office fonds in series Colonial Office 189, New Brunswick Entry Books (MG 11-CO189). Researchers are cautioned however that only the despatches from the Secretary of State to the Lieutenant Governor of New Brunswick are duplicated. The remainder of the records, including despatches from Washington, the Governor-in-Chief and other Lieutenant Governors are original documents. A list of the contents, noting the date, date of receipt, despatch number, subject, number of enclosures and page references is found at the beginning of each volume.
