The following list includes 143 documents that have been omitted from
volume 13 of Adams Family Correspondence and 3 documents that
have come to the editors’ attention since the publication of the volumes in which they
would have appeared. Each entry consists of the date, correspondents, form in which the
letter exists (Dft, FC-Pr, LbC, RC,
Tr, etc.), location, and publication, if known. All copies that exist in
some form in the Adams Papers are noted.
The letters between John Adams and John Quincy Adams in their public
roles that have been omitted from the Family Correspondence
