Saskatchewan Cemeteries Project - Sawatzky Cemetery - Rapid View, Saskatchewan




The Saskatchewan Cemetery Project bids farewell to its old Rootsweb dwelling and eagerly welcomes you to its new digital sanctuary at https://saskgenweb.ca/cansacem/. A heartfelt nod to Ancestry.com and Rootsweb.com for their past support as we embark on this exciting transition.

Our mission remains unwavering-to preserve family legacies through the digital immortalization of Saskatchewan cemeteries. Unearth the stories of your ancestors, reconnect with long-lost kin, or simply wander through the virtual landscapes of our comprehensive cemetery records. Even as winter blankets these sacred grounds, our year-round cemetery headstone digitization program opens doors to exploration from any corner of the globe.

For those who share our passion for documenting history in stone, we extend a warm invitation. Whether you've been part of our journey or wish to lend support through Patreon, your involvement is treasured. Join our growing community at https://www.patreon.com/SaskGenWeb and ensure this invaluable service endures through the ages.

Embark on a new chapter with us at https://saskgenweb.ca/cansacem/. Together, let's weave the tapestry of history, one headstone at a time. If you find our endeavors worthwhile, consider supporting us on Patreon. United, we honor the past and carve a path for generations yet to come.

Warm regards,

The Saskatchewan Cemetery Project Volunteer Team
