Geschiedenis beheer
Some of the material was donated to the Hamilton Public Library, Local History & Archives by a few different donors, including Mrs. W.B. Moore in 1965, Mr. Frank Jones in 1967, and Mrs. W.H. Penny [date unknown]. The collection also contains records that were found amongst the possessions of Colonel William Gourlay of the First Battalion Incorporated Militia. After his death, these papers were donated however, it is unclear as to who donated them and at what time. Other material was purchased by the Hamilton Public Library from Canada Book Auction in 1981. Earlier staff, unaware of the archival principle of provenance, placed all the material together, breaching this rule. Due to the nature of the material and the small amount, a decision was made by the archivist to keep it together and process it as a general collection on the First Battalion Incorporated Militia.
