Administrative Records and Reference Works
Many of the documents now part of the general manuscript series simply derive from the paperwork necessary to run an office. These include cash books, receipts, Ulster's Diaries, letter books, day books, and records of fees due for the various functions carried out by Ulster. Of these, the most interesting from a genealogical point of view are:
- the letter books (GO 361 & 378), copies of all letters sent out from the Office between 1789 and 1853,
- the Betham letters (GO 580 & 604), a collection of the letters received by Sir William Betham between c.1810 and 1830 and purchased by the Genealogical Office in 1943.
