Chronological index to Admiralty Orders, 1866

Chronological index to Admiralty Orders, 1866

System of arrangement:
CHA/J/16 appears not to be like other indexes in this series, and instead comprises written out copies of letters from April 1866 to December 1866. Whereas within other CHA/H series books the letters are all on individual pieces of paper of a variety of sizes, these are written out continuously, usually with more than one letter on each page. Generally, the letters do seem to have been copied out in full. Note that the numbering is not sequential, although they seem to be in date order.
