British Public Record Office
The British Public Record Office (PRO) houses the national archives
of England and the United Kingdom, including records created by
the actions of central government and of the courts of law of England
and Wales.
This section serves as a guide to the holdings of the British
Public Record Office (PRO) at Stanford and selected research libraries
in the United States. The Public Record Office organizes its material
in record group based on the originating agency. An alphanumeric
string represents the agency and category of material. For example,
the Minutes of the Colonial Overseas Defence Committee are contained
in "Cab.7", the seventh record group of the Cabinet Office files.
Citations to British archival source material are made directly
these class numbers, hence the arrangement of this guide.
