Description

Letter in the hand of Lord Melbourne requesting information on 'Ralph Milbank - midshipman - has been two years in the West Indies in a … schooner, the Jack Daw, making surveys....'. Three pages, not all writing is legible. Further comments written in two other hands, including suggestion to 'ask Captain Beaufort' and that 'He [Milbank] is a mate on board the Jackdaw and passed 17 December 1831'. Lord Melbourne was the brother-in-law of Lord Palmerston, and Prime Minister of the United Kingdom for a time when Lord Palmerston was Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. This record is part of a collection relating to Lord Palmerston (1784-1865), after whom Palmerston North was named. The donor of the Lord Palmerston collection, F C Holland of England (who was interested in philately and postal history) donated a number of items related to Lord Palmerton in the 1970s, after visiting Palmerston North. Cut from larger, unknown document.
