| Creator | Dyson; Sir; Frank Watson (1868 - 1939) |

| Description | Informs of an application by a Dutch astronomer, Dr. J.E. de Vos van Steenwyk, requesting access to the original astronomical observations made at Paramatta Observatory from 1822-1826 for a new reduction of the Paramatta Star Catalogue. As the results of the Paramatta Observatory were usually published in the Philosophical Transcations of the Royal Society, enquires if these records are in the Royal Society archives and requests their availability for this valuable research work. |
