| 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.
Fr Peter Cobb died in May 2010: his Walsingham books and papers have come to the Archives. Some of our 'wants' will be found among them, once they have been sorted.
| Pilgrims'
Manuals: 3rd (1949), 4th (1951), 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 |
| St
Hilary's - Report and Accounts booklets. We have them for 1950, 1959,
1964, 1968, 1970, 1974 and 1975. If you have any of the gaps that
we may copy, please let us know. |

| 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. |
neverthless,
thank
you to some recent kind donors of memorabilia
eBay
- Walsingham postcards
More and more Walsingham items are appearing on eBay. If we don't have
the item in the archives and want it badly enough it might be bid for
(out of private donations), but in the case of postcards all we need
is a copy of the image. We don't need to buy it. If you are planning
to bid for a postcard and would send us a scan, let us know.
