| Description | The documents in this file were formerly in a portfolio (10) entitled:
Estate / of the late / W: Wilkinson Custom House / Liverpool / Flookborough / 1832 to
At the time of listing, the file contained only one packet of documents, contained inside a wrapper marked "Flookborough." However, it is clear that there was formerly another packet of documents relating to the Liverpool Custom House. It is likely that these documents were extracted and transferred elsewhere while the Matthew Boulton Papers were in the custody of the Birmingham Assay Office, but it is no longer possible to ascertain what these documents were. (See, however, the Introduction to the file of General Correspondence, S to Z, 1837-1839.)
Inside the front cover of the portfolio is the following note: For Correspondence & Accts of G. H. Timmins Receiver of the Liverpool Custom House Rents see - Correspondence T , Repositories In the following List, the summaries in quotation-marks are taken from the contemporary dockets.
