3 The Comandancia General materials are a record group, at least in part, rather than a fondo as the Comandancia General had its own building between 1876 and 1896. Both the Comandancia General building and its archive were lost in the fire of 1896: Hidalgo G., AlbertoCronica del incendio de 5 y 6 de Octubre de 1896,” appendix to Informe y memoria estadística de la Intendencia de Policia del Guayas, correspondientes al año de 1897 (Guayaquil, 1898), xix.Google Scholar

7 Estrada Ycaza attempts a record group classification in “Libraries and Archives of Guayaquil,” utilizing the same inventory, but given the miscellaneous contents of many of the series, the uncertainty as to their origins, and the errors in the source, his effort is premature.
