Per Resolves 1832, c 30, the governor appointed commissioners to revise, collate, and arrange colonial, provincial, and other general statutes of the Commonwealth, collecting those relating to the same subject matter under appropriate titles, chapters, and sections. Successive joint committees of the General Court (both known as Committee on the Revised Statutes) appointed per orders of Jan. 22, 1835 and Mar. 18, 1835 respectively, reviewed and amended the report and continuing work of the commissioners. The resulting codification known as the Revised statutes was enacted on Nov. 4, 1835, and printed with federal and state constitutions per Resolves 1835, Ex Sess, c 107. Series was created to record deliberations of both 1835 committees, including recommendations of the commissioners, proposed committee amendments, and committee votes.
