Notes
Please note: language pertaining to Indigenous Peoples, people of colour, and those of Jewish faith used throughout is outdated and may be offensive. Letters 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. Some letters also have numbers written in pencil crayon, believed to be from when originally processed.
