I have a grandfather who's parents were homesteaders on 160 acres near Churchbridge, Saskatchewan probably right around 1900. My grandfather's parents were named Olafur Loptsonr and Gudtrun Palsdottir. Do you know of where I might find some sort of official record of them homesteading the land? I do know that they gave up after a number of years and that my great-grandfather returned to town to continue being a watchmaker, but I was wondering if there would be any records of the homesteading. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks, Paul --- Paul EASYNET=> scotty::ferwerda Gordon UUCP=> decvax!decwrl!scotty.DEC.COM!ferwerda Loptson DARPA Internet=> ferwerda%scotty.DEC@decwrl.DEC.COM Ferwerda Tel (617) 467 5917
