Perhaps there are still JTR treasures in the National Archives

Interestingly, according to the Daily Telegraph (yes, I know!),
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/8688070/Hundreds-of-historic-papers-lost-from-National-Archives.html

"Hundreds of folders of historical documents chronicling pivotal moments in British history have gone missing from The National Archives" well, WE know that. But later it states ""I'm hopeful it's a temporary aberration," "These things do get lost and come back to life." and then "incidences of theft were rare and most of the missing files were believed to have been put on the wrong shelves by staff"

So perhaps there is hope that some nuggets are still lurking, perhaps filed away with Mrs Beeton's recipes or something!

Material gets misplaced and put down and forgotten about, no system is fool proof.

I would say the odds are quite good that there is some material to be uncovered now wether it's of any use or not.....

There may be a Gold Maybrick to be found. :photo:

It would be a good thing if records that pertain to any and all police officers who served in the Met or City were re-examined in order that files which were related to the Whitechapel Murders were not misplaced.

I can envision files which were not returned to the proper individual and his file folder.

Andy Aliffe has told me point blank that there is material available which has not been examined. Whether its in the National Archives or PRO I am not certain.

People like Rob Clack have found exceptional data at Colindales and have been generously shared.
