VPRS 14308 Register of Inward Correspondence, 'T' Series

This series is one of a number maintained in the Occupation Branch of the Department of Crown Lands and Survey after 1896. It registers correspondence received relating to the occupation of Crown land by lease or by license in a number of Land Districts. For the whole period this series registered correspondence relating to the Bairnsdale, Sale and Omeo Land Districts. Researchers should note that correspondence relating to parishes in the County of Buln Buln which changed from the Sale to the Melbourne Land District c 1898 are also registered in this series. These Land Districts eventually became part of the Division of Eastern Victoria and were covered by registers in the 'HO'series.Registrations consisted of the registered number (a sequential number with a T prefix), the dates of the letter and of the entry, the name and address of the correspondent, a summary of the subject of the letter and how it was dealt with. This last entry was most usually the number of the file to which the piece of correspondence was attached or a reference to a District Land Office. (Many of these files are held by PROV in the series identified in the Series Controlled entry.) There may be within a registration, notations of the numbers of other pieces of correspondence received on the same subject denoted by a letter and a number.

本系列是1896年后由王室土地与测量部（Department of Crown Lands and Survey）土地占用处（Occupation Branch）维护的档案系列之一。该系列负责登记多个土地辖区内，以租赁或许可方式占用王室土地相关的往来函件。在整个存续周期内，本系列均登记贝尔斯代尔（Bairnsdale）、塞尔（Sale）与奥米奥（Omeo）土地辖区的相关函件。研究人员需注意：布尔恩布尔恩郡（County of Buln Buln）内部分教区于约1898年从塞尔土地辖区划归墨尔本土地辖区，其相关往来函件亦被收录于本系列中。上述土地辖区后续均并入维多利亚州东部分区，其相关登记信息亦被‘HO’系列档案所涵盖。每份登记条目包含以下内容：登记编号（前缀为T的顺序编号）、函件与登记日期、寄件人姓名与地址、函件主题摘要及处理方式。其中处理方式一栏通常为该函件所附档案的编号，或指向对应辖区土地办公室的标识。（本系列涉及的大量档案原件由维多利亚公共档案馆（Public Record Office Victoria，简称PROV）依据系列管控条目所指定的档案系列妥善保管。）部分登记条目还可能附带同一主题其他往来函件的编号标注，标注形式为字母加数字组合。
