Classement
The initial accession for the Bruce Family fonds was #00045 which included materials related to William Bruce and his son William Blair Bruce. At a later date (1967), an anonymous donor donated letters, sketches and drawings from William Blair Bruce. At an undetermined date, accession #00045 was divided up and accessions #00276 (William Bruce) and #00507 (William Blair Bruce) were created and accession #00045 was removed. The current accession (#00507) has been rearranged to better reflect materials initially in accession #00045 for the Bruce Family fonds.
