- Title:
- Coll 6/18 'Arabia: Migration of Hejazis from Hejaz to Transjordan'
- Scope & Content:
-
This file is concerned with the migration of Hejazis from Hejaz to Transjordan.
The file consists of copies of Foreign Office and Colonial Office correspondence, which discuss rumours of disaffection among Hejazi tribesmen, and of their desertion from the Hejaz to Transjordan. The correspondence also discusses allegations made in the Hejazi press that the tribesmen are being enticed into Transjordan, and subsequent reports that the Amir of Transjordan [ʿAbdullāh bin Ḥusayn al-Hāshimī] has disclaimed any responsibility for the rumoured migrations.
The file's principal correspondents are His Majesty's Chargé d’Affaires at Jedda (Cecil Gervase Hope Gill), the British Minister at Jedda (Sir Andrew Ryan), the Secretary of State for the Colonies, the Acting High Commissioner for Palestine and Transjordan (Mark Aitchison Young), and various officials of the Foreign Office.
In addition to letters and telegrams, the file includes a memorandum by Sir Andrew Ryan which recounts his interview with the Amir of Transjordan, in Amman, on 13 February 1932.
The file includes a divider which gives a list of correspondence references contained in the file by year. This is placed at the back of the correspondence.
