The family of Thomas Douglas Grieve via his daughter, Anne Millar (nee Grieve)
Inhoud en structuur
Bereik en inhoud
- 3 letters with their envelopes written to Thomas Douglas Grieve relating to his career - 05 January 1928, William Wright Smith to Thomas Douglas Grieve offering him a place on the probationer course; 15 March 1937, Lord Alness to Thomas Douglas Grieve offering best wishes on his post in Jamaica; 03 April 1937, John Macqueen Cowan to Thomas Douglas Grieve congratulating him on his post in Kingston, Jamaica.
- Probationer Gardener Papers- 1 lecture synopsis and 7 exam papers sat by Grieve during his probationer gardener career at RBGE - lecture synopsis, 1929-1930; exam papers: Forest Botany, 03 April 1928; Botanical Nomenclature, 25 March 1929; Book-Keeping, 17 December 1929; British Timbers, 31 March 1930; Plant Propagation, 22 July 1930; Forest Botany (2), 30 March 1931; Plant Pathology, 13 July 1931;

Waardering, vernietiging en slectie
There is potential that this collection could be split and added to others in the RBGE archive - exam papers could added to a collection of exam papers in the education section of the RBGE Archives if such a collection was created- the letters link with those already in the probationer book, but rather than add more loose letters to these ledgers, preferable to keep separately in a folder in the Archives - G box; the handbook should go to the nursery catalogue collection in the RBGE Library.
