Collection description ______

Ref No: JRH Extent: 5 linear metres Title: Papers of James Rendel Harris Date: c. 1880s-1960s Description: The papers of James Rendel Harris include notebooks and newspaper cuttings relating to his research on folklore and the history of the Pilgrim Fathers' ship, the Mayflower; and correspondence with other scholars and friends: Herbert George Wood, his secretary Irene Speller Pickard, Eric Wills, and L Violet Hodgkin. The collection contains many of his own copies of his books and essays, published and unpublished. These are often annotated and occasionally contain letters or other documents. There are also papers about him collected by Irene Speller Pickard during the writing of her book, 'Memories of James Rendel Harris'; and papers of Harris's nephew, John Major, concerning their research on the Egyptian origins of English place names, which was Harris's main research interest in the last years of his life. Arrangement: The papers have been divided into three groups (sub-fonds): papers created by Rendel Harris himself, and papers about him collected by Irene Pickard and by his nephew John Major. The first group has been arranged by record type into five series: press cuttings and research notes; notebooks; articles and lectures; correspondence; and books.

The collection was originally listed using references beginning G Har. These correspond to the new references as follows:

James Rendel Harris held many academic posts from 1882 including Professor, Johns Hopkins University, 1882-5, Haverford College, 1885-92; lecturer in palaeography, Cambridge, 1893-1903; First Principal and Director of Studies at the Friends' Settlement for Social and Religious Study, Woodbrooke College (the first Selly Oak College), 1903-1918 and Curator of Eastern Manuscripts at the John Rylands Library, Manchester, 1918-1925. He was a prolific publisher of specialist studies and devotional writings. He travelled extensively in the East in search of manuscripts, finding Syriac versions of the Apology of Aristides (1889) and the Odes of Solomon (1909). He married Helen Balkwill of Plymouth in 1880, who died in 1914. Custodial History: The provenance of the collection is unknown, but it is believed that some papers were brought to Woodbrooke College from Rendel Harris's house, 210 Bristol Road, Birmingham, after the house was bombed during the Second World War.

The papers relating to Rendel Harris's Mayflower research (listed as JRH 1/1/3-1/1/6) were given to Woodbrooke by his nephew, Harold Angus, in 1976. Papers belonging to Rendel Harris's nephew, John Major (listed as JRH/3) were given to Woodbrooke by his wife in 1966. Related Material: The archives of Woodbrooke College include papers relating to College administration from 1903 onwards and personal papers of students and staff. Associated Material: Papers of James Rendel Harris and Helen Balkwill Harris (DA21), a related collection, are held at the Department of Special Collections, University of Birmingham. Haverford Quaker College holds manuscript collected by Harris and some of his personal papers. Publication Note: Some of these papers were used by Alessandro Falcetta in his 'James Rendel Harris: A Life on the Quest', Quaker Studies 8 (2004): 208-225.
