The Official Pacific Station Records were placed at one time or another in three state repositories: the Public Record Office (London), the Public Archives of Canada (Ottawa), and the Provincial Archives of British Columbia (Victoria, BC). Initially most of these records, accumulated by commanders-in-chief, Pacific, remained at Esquimalt for some years after the transfer of that base in 1910 to Canada, who had assumed responsibility for defending her Pacific shores. In 1923 the largest body of official records of the Pacific Station, numbering thirty-nine volumes (exclusive of the index to the first twenty-two volumes) were deposited by the Admiralty in the Public Archives of Canada direct from Esquimalt. In 1937 six volumes of correspondence, which had been returned to the Admiralty in 1914, were divided, three going to the Public Record Office forming Adm. The list which follows in no way attempts to include all documents relevant to the Royal Navy's Pacific Station.
