The Milton House archives, circa 1575-1775.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/122928166

This collection, the title of which is derived from the name of the house in England where its contents were kept for almost 200 years, consists of significant portions of the papers of George Birkhead, Archpriest of England in the early seventeenth century, and of the Belson family, together with a miscellany of letters and documents pertaining in one way or another to English Catholic history between the late sixteenth and late eighteenth centuries. Among the more prominent authors of letters are Robert Parsons (or Persons), S.J., one of the first missionaries to Protestant England; Thomas Fitzherbert, agent for the English Catholic clergy in Rome; and Cardinal William Allen. The documents are said to have been at Douai College in France until the French Revolution, when they were taken to England.
