The LETTER REPOSITORY is an archive of letters from normal everyday people of the 18th, 19th and early 20th century. This covers many interesting time periods including the Napoleonic wars, the American Civil War, the Great Depression, World War One and Two as well as many other world events. Mainly written in the English language, many of the letters contain themes of love and romance, religion, family, friends, legal and business matters. |
Each letter belongs to a lot, which are loose groupings of letters in the order that they were obtained. We did not try to sort the letters as to do so would destory some of their history. Nevertheless for a typical lot, most letters are to the same recipient(s) with multiple letters being from the same sender(s). Lots may contain anything from a single letter to several hundred and each letter may have many tens of pages plus attachments. Presently there are thirty-seven lots, which are listed below. If you'd rather browse by topic, see the drop down box in the top left corner. By date see the drop box below or you may choose any of the blue links scattered on this and other pages of the site. |
