      Fonctions et activités

      The Historical Branch conducted historical research and put on promotions designed to make Ontario's citizens and visitors more aware of Ontario's heritage. This included the branch's historical plaque program which was designed to identify and promote historic sites in Ontario (actual decisions on designating an historic site, however, were carried out by the Archaeological and Historic Sites Board). The branch also maintained advisors to assist local museums in the selection, preservation, and display of their collections, and provided grants to museums that were owned and operated by municipalities as well. After 1959 it was responsible for the administration of grants to museums.
