For what it's worth, I don't recognise that.

Styles are saved in documents.  If you saved the document you were 
working in when you created the styles, the styles will still exist 
in that document.  (If you didn't, they won't!)  If you want to use 
them in another document, you can import them using the Load 
Styles... facility in the Styles & Formatting window.

But in your case, you appeared to want these styles in documents in 
the form of letters, so the sensible way forward would be to create 
an otherwise empty document with any headings you wanted and your new 
styles.  Then save that document as a template (File | Save as 
Template).  When you want to create a new letter, instead of starting 
with a default blank document, start from your new template and then 
save the document so created as the new letter.

You'll probably want two new templates, one for each of your letter 
types and each containing just one set of new styles appropriate to 
that letter type.
