Source

A detailed calendar/finding aid listing 200+ documents from State Papers 42/2 covering the post-Revestment period 1777–1783. Documents cover defence, revenue administration, civil list arrears, Fencibles recruitment, the Tynwald Acts of 1777, disputes with the Duke of Atholl over manorial records and rights, currency issues, and correspondence between the Isle of Man governors (Smith, Dawson) and the Home Office (Suffolk, Stormont, North). This is a critical research tool for understanding the immediate aftermath of the 1765 purchase and early constitutional development.
