Paddington Correspondence and Subject Files, 1902-1950

Description

Unique IDAS-0739DateBetween 6th February 1902 and 9th February 1950Date qualifiercircaFormatLoose PapersDescriptionThis records series was the central filing system for the Paddington Council from about 1916 to 1948. It continued in use into 1949 during transitional arrangements for extension of Sydney City Council control to Paddington. Some correspondence and reports from earlier periods, for example Triennial Returns, were later placed on the files.

Correspondence was organised in subject files, grouped according to topic within the subject file, then arranged chronologically within topic groups, these topic groups were sometimes bundled by year. Letters were removed from their original position in letter or report books, and have evidence of different numbering systems, such as page numbers from the original book, various correspondence file numbers, some were unnumbered. Correspondence was often glued to the back of other Council documents such as Meeting Minutes, Committee Reports, Officer's Reports etc from the same period.
