| Description | The series consists of papers of the following members of Scharf's family:
-his grandfather, John Hicks
-his father, George Johann Scharf
-his mother, Elizabeth Scharf nee Hicks
-his aunt, Mary Hicks
-his aunt, Ann Hicks
The records include personal diaries, account and rent books, ledgers, correspondence and personal belongings.
Some of the records (diaries of George Johann Scharf, Elizabeth Scharf and Mary Hicks) also provide information on the activities of Sir George Scharf.
They were preserved by Scharf probably because his father, mother and aunt Mary lived with him until their deaths at 20 George Street.
Records are arranged into groups by the person who created them. |
