WHO BUILT IT?

The golden question. Sometimes I can’t find any information about a property. Other times, I struggle to figure out who settled on the land and who constructed the house! This property is one of those homesteads. And if we are being honest, this was a drive-by. Open the window, take a few shots and move on to something more decrepit and appealing.

The first recorded homesteader bought this land but farmed it only. He later rented to another well-known local who came to Canada, stayed briefly, moved to Saskatchewan and came back. He only lived on this land until 1922.

Family number 3 lived on this land for 25 years. They raised four children but I do not know if it was on this land alone.
