This collection consists of more than 300 documents including indentures, deeds, leases, omnibuses, wills, a few court rolls, conveyances, and other legal documents from the fourteenth century through the early twentieth century. Most of them have small wax seals and a few also have large royal seals, some of which are intact in their original metal canisters. There are also a few photostats of documents Wakefield sold before delivering the collection to Northwestern University.
