            [history] => 
Pre-1886 correspondence to and from the Land offices were recorded in a series of registers, and indexes, providing for the registration of each individual item of inwards and outwards correspondence.  1887 marked the introduction of a system of correspondence filing for the Commissioner of Crown Land and the Chief Surveyor that was transitional between the "conventional" 19th century system of correspondence registration and the subject file classification system commonly used by New Zealand Government departments in the 20th century. This system is represented by the Crown Land (CL) and Survey (S) general correspondence records. 
These letter books record the registration of correspondence folios on ‘CL’ files [series 12623]. The Commissioner of Crown Lands and the Chief Surveyor (usually one person, but two distinct offices) continued to keep separate outward letter-books in this period, and initially two general file series (CL - crown land and S - survey). Eventually ‘CL’ & ‘S’ files ceased to be used and a numeric system of classification was introduced for registered files.
