Institutional archive<\/h2>\n
The Horniman records contain material relating to the organisation\u2019s history, development and activities since its foundation in 1898, including:<\/span><\/p>\n
\n
the founding of the Horniman;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n
the history and provenance of its object collections.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
In 1901, the Horniman was passed to the London County Council. Consequently, many of the organisation\u2019s administrative records from 1901 to 1990 are available for research at the London Metropolitan Archives via their <\/span>online catalogue<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
The Horniman is not a repository for the personal papers of the Horniman family. Sadly, very little information relating to these individuals appears to have survived. Biographies and further sources of information about family members will be added to our online collections as they are researched.<\/span><\/p>\n
