Introduction

Content Description

This collection of papers relating to Andrew Delfosse Badgery comprises a mixture of formats and materials, some contemporary to Badgery's life and some produced by third parties. Of note are a number of diaries which the donor accredit to Badgery himself, one which is of his early life and labelled as fragile, and one which was created during his time as a pilot in WWI. There is a large family tree, and numerous photographs, some stored as a collection in a single binder and some in his diaries. There is a lot of material relating to a biography of Badgery which the donor suggests was written by his son Peter, including several typed drafts, and correspondences with the Australian War Memorial and National Archives Australia regarding his service. There is also a biography of his son, as well as some articles written by the donor regarding Badgery.
