The Weckherlin Papers

Abstract

• THE Weckherlin Papers are part of the vast archive of the Trumbull family, which passed through the female line to the Marquesses of Downshire. It was kept at Easthampstead Park in Berkshire until it was deposited on loan with the Berkshire County Record Office at Reading in 1954. A large section of it came on the market at Sotheby's in December 1989 and was acquired en bloc by the British Library.
