The following volumes of Admirals’ In-letters were filmed in the 1970s and early 1980s by the then Public Archives of Canada (PAC) filming-team resident at the then Public Records Office (PRO) in London and later in Kew.  Following several name changes and mergers, the former PRO is now The National Archives (TNA) and the London locations are closed having relocated to Kew in nearby Surrey, and the PAC is now Library and Archives Canada/Bibliothéque et Archives Canada [http://collectionscanada.ca/]  The reels of microfilm listed below are but few of the many films which can be borrowed by Americans via inter-institutional loan from the Canadian archives.
