Scope and Content: Cash books, day books, cash ledgers, charge books, rent account books, cash account books, and other financial volumes maintained by the Bandon Estate Office on behalf of clients, including the estate of the earl of Bandon. Cash books and day books record the collection of monies, including rents, rates, and other dues, on behalf of estates. Rent collection books and account books document aspects of the work of land agents, and of the outgoing expenses of estate work. These records complement rentals and many contain the names of tenants, suppliers, and tradesmen. They are a key record of the economic history of the agency and the estates it managed, and include many records from earlier in the nineteenth century, before the firm came into being. As with rentals, the volumes in this series have been divided into sub-series with groupings: U137/CB/A consists of volumes relating to the estate of the earl of Bandon, items 1-14 being cash books, day books, and cash ledgers (arranged chronologically), items 15-26 being rent collection and valuation books, charge and account books, and other smaller financial records of that nature. (26 items, 1823-1900) U137/CB/B consists of volumes maintained by the Bandon Estate Office relating to several estates and to separate estates (other than earl of Bandon's estate). Items 1-5 are cash books and estate account ledgers, and items 6-28 are rent and account books. Items 1, 2, and 6, are of particular interest in documenting the accounts of several estates, many of them connected to the Bernard family.
