Notes

With the arrival of homesteaders in the 1910s, Evans details the building of the first schools, churches, and the grain elevators that anchored villages such as White Fox, St. Louis, and Carrot River. He highlights the challenges of prairie soil, harsh winters, and the community spirit that kept settlers going. Mr. Evans endeavoured to keep alive the memory of those who came before us.
