Reproduces 3,020 dossiers of manuscripts relating principally to late colonial Mexico (1770-1820), originating in the offices of the Viceroy, Real Audiencia, archbishops, and bishops of New Spain. Included are church records and inventories; censuses; notarial files; laws and decrees (including printed edicts and proclamations); litigation records of civil and ecclesiastical suits and land disputes; letters; reports; investigations; and maps, illustrations, and architectural plans. Many documents concern Indian affairs and problems with the church. A certain number of documents date from the later national period of Mexico, consisting principally of government decrees. Some documents come from places other than Mexico (Spain, the Phillipines, Guatemala, Cuba, Colombia, and Italy), but all such documents are within the time limit of the Spanish colonial period.
