Letter book copies of outward correspondence
Part of Archibald McKinlay fonds
File consists of letter book copies of Archibald McKinlay's outward correspondence. The letter book contains personal correspondence as well letters related to his work for the Indian Reserve Commission.
Joint Indian Reserve Commission : journal of proceedings : vol. I
This series consists of Volume I of the Journal of Proceedings of the Joint Indian Reserve Commission (JIRC) and documents the daily work of the three commissioners (Alexander Caulfield Anderson, Archibald McKinlay, and Gilbert Malcom Sproat) from November 1876 to June 1877 on the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island. In addition to the text of the journal, there are also several ink and colour drawings of reserves.
Within the journal are several loose correspondence and drafts of documents, many of which are addressed to A.C. Anderson. These loose documents have been retained within the pages of the volume.
The JIRC was formed in 1876 to settle disputes between the federal and provincial governments regarding allotment of reserves in British Columbia. The JIRC operated until 1878, when it was replaced by the Indian Reserve Commission, for which Sproat remained the commissioner.
An attached document (see the finding aid note section of this description) provides a paginated listing of locations visited by the commissioners.

Part of Ogden family fonds
The file consists of 7 letters and 4 transcripts of Ogden's outward correspondence from 1831 to 1849. Correspondence is addressed to a variety of recipients, including John Haldane, William F. Tolmie, John McLeod, Donald Ross, and Ogden's son-in-law Archibald McKinlay, as well as several unidentified correspondents. The file also includes an extract from Ogden's letters to Chief Traders Tod and Mansion in 1845. Although described as a holograph, it appears to be in a different hand than Ogden's. Correspondence deals with a variety of private and Company matters.
Transcripts have been placed in a separate folder for conservation purposes. Not all letters have accompanying transcripts. Some transcripts appear to be copied from John McLeod's "Journals and correspondence of John McLeod, Senior, Chief trader, Hudson's Bay Company."
