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.

The provisional districts of "Assiniboia" and "Saskatchewan" did not use the current eastern and western boundaries, but extended to range 10 west of the 4th meridian and the provisional district of Saskatchewan had an eastern border at Lake Winnipeg. The province of Alberta and Saskatchewan are currently divided exactly upon the 4th meridian since 1905. Any school districts in the North-West Territories which locate west of the 4th meridian as Stoneyhurst does, was actually located in the provisional district of "Assiniboia." As this provisional district extended from the 33rd township southward to the U.A Canada border.

However, as Stoneyhurst existed between the years of 1934-1941, the location, SE 4 26 1 west of the fourth meridian, fully places it in the province of Alberta. The question arises, during the economic depression and drought years of the "dirty thirties" did students attend the one room schoolhouse of closest expedience and were allowances made if a student in Saskatchewan crossed the political "provincial" border to attend the physically closer school of Stoneyhurst.
