Custodial history
After their deaths (Roderick 1976 and Ann 1990), these records were in the possession of their eldest daughter, Valerie Haig-Brown. Valerie, also a writer, used the records as resource material for her book "Deep Currents", which documents the lives of her parents.
Scope and content
The fonds consists of familial correspondence between Ann and Roderick Haig-Brown, 1932-1976; personal papers of Ann Haig-Brown including letters, university notes, memorabilia, ephemera and subject files; negatives, colour transparencies relating to the Haig-Brown family and their home in Campbell River; black and white photographs taken by Alan Haig-Brown (Roderick's father) which accompanied articles that he wrote on various sporting subjects in England during the Edwardian period.
