Richard Shackleton correspondence
Manuscripts
A collection of 401 items from 1658 to 1808, it consists of the correspondence of Richard Shackleton and his wife Elizabeth (Carleton) Shackleton. Many of the letters addressed to Richard Shackleton are from parents whose children attended the Ballitore Quaker school and former students commenting on university life. The remaining portion of the collection consists of letters written from the Shackletons to their friend Elizabeth (Pim) Pike of Dublin. Although most of the letters concern the Society of Friends in Ireland, there are some items relating to activities of Friends in England and America. There are a few items from the latter seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, including individual letters by George Whitehead and William Penn.
