Abstract
Papers of Jessie May Sweet (1901-79), mineralogist and historian of science. Jessie Sweet worked in the Department of Mineralogy of the British Museum (Natural History) from 1927 until her retirement in 1961, when she moved to Edinburgh. She then became an authority on the life of Robert Jameson (1774-1854), Professor of Natural History in Edinburgh University. Most of the papers belong to this later period; her earlier notebooks and manuscripts are held by the Natural History Museum in London.
