gaps in the archives

Can you help? Can you offer us a photocopy of any of these (or even donate)?

As we work on the archives we are finding gaps in series: perhaps someone has a copy of what we need and would be willing to send us a photocopy. At present we are mainly concentrating on the records of Fr Patten's lifetime (i.e. up to 1958) although there are many gaps in the later series. He often issued "wants" lists as he furnished the new buildings - below is the beginning of ours.

Pilgrims' Manuals: 3rd (1949), 4th (1951), 6th (1957), 11th (1972), editions
National Pilgrimage programmes as shown on the list (click here)
information about the film made by Fr Ronald Wills in 1960 called "The Walsingham Story" - and preferably a copy of it

Donations
There is no pressure whatever on anyone to donate their precious memorabilia to the archives. Some people do send items to us, which are always gratefully received, but we will be very happy with photocopies of our missing items. It is the information within that matters most.


thank you to some recent kind donors of memorabilia
