As with other series shelfmarked MS. Ch. and MS. Rolls, this is an artificial collection created from a range of archival sources, and the provenance of individual items is not always known.

The collection catalogued in 1878 comprised MSS. Ch. Devon 1-9, of unrecorded provenance. (Ch. 8 was noted by Thomas Tanner in his Notitia, p. 93, but without recording its location.)

Ch. 10-58 and Rolls 1 (bought, 1918) are later accessions from a variety of sources.
