Notes
Please note: language pertaining to Indigenous Peoples, people of colour, and those of the Jewish faith used throughout is outdated and offensive. Letters are all handwritten and typewritten and include some hotel, business and camp letterheads. Some letters are marked with a small x in pencil, indicating where Jon Whyte made notes for use in his project "Catharine Robb Whyte, Peter Whyte: Commemorative Portfolio," originally published in 1981. Some letters also have numbers written in pencil crayon, believed to be from when originally processed.

Notes
Please note: language pertaining to Indigenous Peoples used throughout is outdated and may be offensive. Many typed letters have hand-written notes added throughout; many post scripts are hand-written. Some letters are marked with a small x in pencil, indicating where Jon Whyte made notes for use in his project "Catharine Robb Whyte, Peter Whyte: Commemorative Portfolio," originally published in 1981. 143 - 39 includes a sketch of a shelving unit Catharine hoped to have installed in their bedroom. 143 - 64 is the 1958 Christmas card made by Catharine and Peter
