There are also some personal and official papers of various members of the family, as High Sheriff of Oxfordshire and in other posts.

Risley was able to deal with the remaining areas of Bengal by making use of a large staff of correspondents who came from disparate backgrounds, such as missionaries, native people and Government officials.
