The reports by the Deputy Keeper of the Public Records are concerned with the transfer and classification of various records. These reports are a valuable source because they were created before the destruction of the Four Courts.
The report on the Franciscan manuscripts details the manuscripts that survived from the establishment of the Irish Franciscan College of St Isadore in Rome. In 1872 the manuscripts were transferred from Rome to Dublin. The manuscripts present many fascinating accounts of the tumultuous events both in Ireland and Europe during the religious strife of the 1640s.
