Indeed, here are a couple of counterparts:
Communitiy museum of history: http://www.watkinsmuseum.org/
Local history museum: http://www.durban-history.co.za/
http://members.iinet.net.au/~cbroadfi/LocalHistoryMuseum.htm

Just like the Kraevedcheskij muzej: http://www.museum.irkutsk.ru/ru/ or 
http://museum.azov.ru/
