Donations to the University of St Andrews 1700-1900 EXCLUDED from Legacies of Empire report (dataset)

Dataset

Description

These spreadsheets were created as part of the 'St Andrews and the Legacies of Empire, 1700-1900' project (research active, 2021-23; report published 2025). They list donors and donations who were initially identified as being of potential interest to the project, but were later excluded because:
* although the funds were active in the 1700-1900 period, the initial donation was pre-1700
* OR, the donation was not to the University but to an external trust (AND that trust was not specifically focused on the University of St Andrews)
* OR, the donation was intended for the benefit of University College Dundee
