Physical Description: 7.0 linear feet 14 boxes

Scope and Content Note

Correspondence, documents, reports, manuscripts, and other family materials.

Letters sent to and received by Charles Hay and Julia Margaret Cameron include those sent by Charles to Julia discussing his 1850 trip to Ceylon (1850-1851) as well as a group sent by Julia to Hardinge Hay Cameron in which she expresses her worries for her son Charles Hay, and discusses her religious feelings, her grandchildren, the estates in Ceylon, and the family's financial situation (1871-1876). Other writings by Julia Margaret Cameron include a prayer written before the birth of her first child (1838) and an incomplete MS titled "Reminiscences" (1876). Sir John Herschel writes to Julia Margaret Cameron about his experiments with photography and sends samples of new chemical processes (1839), his wife Lady Margaret Herschel writes of Henry Fox Talbot's invention of the calotype (1841), and their daughter Caroline sends 5 sheets of leaf impressions (1841-1842).

Remaining papers relate to other family members, principally Hardinge Hay Cameron and his wives Kitty Macleod Cameron and Adeline A. Blake Cameron, together with their families. They write of the Camerons' coffee plantations in Ceylon, personal affairs, and health; Henry Herschel Hay Cameron writes of photography and the death in Ceylon of Ellen Ottingham, Julia Margaret Cameron's maid and photographic assistant. In addition to the extensive correspondence between family members, the papers include other personal and business letters, family legal documents (such as wills and marriage settlements), financial documents and reports from the estates in Ceylon, household records, and journals. Sir Henry Taylor sends the poems "Ernesto" and "Lago Lugano," an untitled short poem, and a drama about Thomas à Becket.
