There is very considerable overlap between this material and that in the papers of the Strangeways Laboratory (SA/SRL), in the light of Dame Honor's very long connection with the Strangeways from 1923; as Director, 1929-1970. Readers are advised to consult the list of the Strangeways archives, also that of the papers of Frederick Gordon Spear (PP/FGS) who was Dame Honor's Deputy. Other CMAC collections containing relevant material are the papers of Sir Peter Medawar (PP/PBM), who was a Trustee of the SRL, and those of Sir Edward Mellanby (PP/MEL). A file of correspondence between Dame Janet Vaughan and Dr Audrey Glauert of the Strangeways, 1986-87, concerning the Royal Society Biographical Memoir, can be found in GC/186.
