Show detail Hide detail

CO 134 is a subject class most of which relates to the Hudson's Bay Company. The bulk of the documentation is inward correspondence which fell under the purview of the old Board of Trade. Volume 1 (1675-1689) is preceded by a schedule of contents with dates. The schedule appears to be incomplete, and the occasional page references apply to the old handwritten numbering. None of the remaining volumes includes any kind of index. The entire class is available on microfilm reel B-1701. Transcripts are available on microfilm reel C-13616.

In addition to the microfilm, the National Archives of Canada prepared transcripts on a selective basis from old series which now form part of CO 134 and CO 135. However, the transcripts also include some items which were not placed in either of the Hudson's Bay classes.
