Saskatchewan Gen Web - One room School Project; SOUTHWEST Saskatchewan historical one room schoolhouses


Dear Valued Visitors,

Exciting news! The Saskatchewan One Room School House Project, a cherished resource on the Provincial Saskatchewan Gen Web, is making a move to a new domain. You can now find us at https://saskgenweb.ca/cansk/school. We're thrilled to announce that this labor of love will continue, and our webpages will be regularly updated at the new Domain.

Our commitment to documenting the rich history of one room school houses, cemetery and headstones, historical maps, and disappearing placenames remains unwavering. These records are invaluable for those tracing their genealogy or seeking historical insights into the past.

To support this endeavor, we've launched a Patreon community at https://www.patreon.com/SaskGenWeb. Your contribution enables us to maintain the new domain and web hosting, ensuring the continuity of this essential service for historians, genealogists, and the public.

Explore the revamped webpages at https://saskgenweb.ca/cansk/school and witness the ongoing journey of the Saskatchewan One Room School House Project. As we embark on this exciting chapter, we invite you to join our Patreon community, ensuring that this historical treasure trove thrives for years to come.

A heartfelt thank you to Ancestry.com and Rootsweb.com for their past support. Now, we're turning to you, our community, to help us sustain this vital Saskatchewan GenWeb service.

Your support is truly appreciated.

Warm regards,

Saskatchewan GenWeb Team of Volunteers




Saskatchewan One Room School Project provides an online history for current generations to enjoy, preserve, and experience, our historical eduational, architectural, and cultural, heritage.

The School-house By the Road


Still sits the school-house by the road
A Ragged beggar sunning
Around it grass and thistles grow
And cheeky gophers running
