MSS. Welensky Papers 702

Additional Description

Arrangement

Sir Godfrey's files relating to closer association will be found at MSS. Welensky Papers 103/3-7. Only a sample has been retained of the incomplete series of files originally classified as PM1 - invitations, patronage, etc. - and this is represented by MSS. Welensky Papers 702/1-704/3. These files obviously moved with Huggins from the territorial to the federal stage and formed part of the private office leftovers inherited by Welensky with the office on his succeeding Huggins (Malvern) in the office of Federal Prime Minister.
