Parte de Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh Institutional Archives

Seed Donation Notebook with 'Seeds received Jan'y 1863 to 1868' on the cover which dates from 1863 to 1867 and documents donations of plants from around Britain and the World. There is no index and the notebook seems to be a more informal version of the Seed Donation Ledgers; similar to ones seen in the Plant Donations Subseries; it may have belonged to John Hutton Balfour or James McNab, but has a number of different examples of handwriting inside.
There are a number of inserts including a pressed plant, a note from Dr Hugh Cleghorn and a letter from Jessie / Janet Mann to Hutton Balfour [at page 25-26] dated 28 March 1863 when she was a House Mistress of Campie House School in Musselburgh where she describes some seeds from Mrs Mockler that she is sending to Balfour. She goes on to say that Master Isaac [Bayley Balfour] is quite well and expecting a visit from one of his sisters. Jessie Mann is credited with being Scotland's first female photographer when she worked with David Octavius Hill and Robert Adamson.
