Letters

The letters from 1806-1933 have been listed in detail, and are numbered 1-5711

After 1933, the boxes of letters include some press clippings and documents

In addition to these boxes, there are two boxes of journals and personal notes, dated 1950s-1970s.

Photographs and Sketches

Photographs and sketches recording family history.

The collection includes portraits of generations of the Findlay family, who were related by marriage to the Schreiner, Niemeyer, Marais and other families. These include portraits of Olive Schreiner and other members of the Schreiner and Niemeyer families and their friends, and views of Fraserburg, Boshoff and family homes. There are photographs of family events and holidays.

There is an old hand-written inventory of the photographs C1-159, which corresponds fairly well to these photos in the collection, but extra items have been added and noted. The old inventory is stored in this file.
