Re: Town Government Records
Eric -
You might wish to take a look at the guide to the holdings of the Municipal
Archives-Windsor Public Library. This document is RAD-compliant (Cdn
"Rules for Archival Description"). You should be able to access it at
www.city.windsor.on.ca/wpl/libraries/archives, and will need Adobe Reader
to examine the guide.
The municipal records in this archives date largely from incorporation in
1854. In compliance with RAD, you will find a short administrative history
for each city department's record group.
Hope this helps.
Cheers!
Mark
