The research notes consist of Boughey's notes, letters, and publications from others relating to various aspects of the College's history, as well as the publication of the history. The papers appear disordered from their original state but because there are some runs of like material they have been left as found. Boughey’s note passing them on to R. V. Laurence may be found as item 399, with a covering note and instruction at items 410-411.

These are accompanied by a draft of Boughey’s letter to Hutchinson & Co. (item 245) and Boughey’s original memorandum of agreement with F. E. Robinson dated 4 Nov. 1897 (item 246).

Printed material consists of a card advertising Rouse Ball's History of the First Trinity Boat Club (item 207), five of J. W.

A Sermon Preached in the Chapel of Trinity College Cambridge, on December 9, 1898 (item 442).

Notes were written on verso of letters, including one from Herbert P. S. Devitt asking for leave (item 19), a letter from W. H. D. Rouse to Mr Stewart dated 3 Oct. 1902 (item 39), a book recommendation ticket for the library (item 38), and a Trinity gate bill sent to the Senior Dean for Monday night Aug. 25, n.y. (item 41).
