In this regard the major purchase is the Mallow Estate Papers.

These are the extensive archive left by the Jephson Family who ran Mallow and its vicinity from the time of the Munster plantation until the breakup of the great estates with the Land Acts. This purchase consolidates the Boole Library’s strength in estate papers from former Cork ascendancy families.
