important matters were extracted from the main series and became special bundles. The majority
are registered but some non-registered material is also included.

These papers are arranged alphabetically by the person's name whose land is in question. The

this list are available in the Search Rooms.
Letters re land for institutions and churches are listed with the Special Bundles.
