The organization was called the Grand Caledonian Curling Club. Five years later, in 1843, Her Majesty, Queen Victoria gave permission to use the word Royal. The word Grand, being considered superfluous, was dropped, and since that time has been the Royal Caledonian Curling Club. The Royal Caledonian Curling Club bestowed the powers of a Branch on the Halifax Curling Club in 1851. This authority was given up in December of 1852 when the Halifax Curling Club, the Halifax Thistle Curling Club, and the Dartmouth Curling Club formed the Nova Scotia Branch of the Royal Caledonian Curling Club. In February 1852, the Pictou Curling Club became a member. The New Caledonian Curling Club of Pictou and the New Glasgow Curling Club were admitted to membership in 1854. Antigonish was admitted to membership in 1856. The Nova Scotia Branch was active until the year 1862. It became inactive from 1863 until 1867. After having held three executive meetings in January and February 1867, it became dormant until it's revival in 1904. The first curling game of record arranged by the Nova Scotia Branch was between Halifax, Thistle, and Dartmouth Clubs on January 1st, 1851 at 10:00 a.m.
