Scope and content
A file of correspondence between the Norwich Union Life Insurance Society (operating out of 67 Upper Sackville Street, Dublin) and the Father Paul Neary OFM Cap., Provincial Minister. The letters primarily detail the complex multi-stage financial negotiation of a capital redemption policy and substantial building loan (ranging from £1,000 to £2,000 at 4% interest) intended to secure funding for the Capuchins' new school building project in Rochestown, County Cork. Hand-annotated addenda and accompanying notes trace administrative requests for regional Ordinance Maps, structural valuations, and the cross-referencing of historical manuscripts sought by researchers, alongside a handwritten cover memo explicitly referencing the tracking of the ‘Rochestown Survey’.
