Archdeacon Henry Brune Atkinson (1874-1960), clergyman and orchidologist, was the son of Rev. Henry D. Atkinson of Stanley and Sarah Ann (Ward). He was educated at Stanley State School, Launceston Church Grammar School and the University of Tasmania (BA 1899). He was ordained an Anglican priest in 1902 and served as Rector of Holy Trinity Church, Hobart and Archdeacon of Launceston and Darwin. From 1919 to 1925 he was Vice-Warden of the University Senate. He collected many specimens of orchid from Tasmania and some from NSW, Victoria and New Zealand. These were given to the Queen Victoria Museum, Launceston by his daughter. Rev. Atkinson married Helen Bertha Knight of Christ Church, New Zealand, in 1905 and they had one daughter, Sheila.
These papers consist of his notes and sketches of orchids and letters, notes and articles received from other orchidologists: James Hamlyn Willis (1910-), Government Botanist Melbourne Botanic Gardens and editor of Victorian Naturalist, William Henry Nicholls (1885-1951) orchidologist of Victoria whose Orchids of Australia was published posthumously, and Rev.

Henry McPherson land grant paperwork
A variety of records regarding James and Henry McPherson's land grants within the Seneca reservation as provided in the treaties of St. Mary's and Lewistown. The documents include an affidavit from James McPherson in which he chooses a section of land as laid out the 1817 Treaty of St. Mary's. The second image is a plat of the area showing James and Henry McPherson's land claims. In regards to Henry McPherson's claim of a full section of 640 acres, the documents include a copy of deed from the Seneca Nation for a half-section of land, and a draft of a letter from Henry McPherson to General Joseph Vance in support of his claim to a full section.
