Prince Albert, Saskatchewan GenWeb Project - Census Information

Dear Prince Albert and Area Gen Web Community,
Visit our new digital abode at https://saskgenweb.ca/skpralbt/, where we embark on a renewed journey. In this labor of love, our dedicated volunteers document the stories of one room schoolhouses, sacred cemetery grounds, historical maps, and vanishing placenames. It's a testament to our commitment to preserving the essence of our shared past.

We're excited to share that, with the support of our Patreon community (https://www.patreon.com/SaskGenWeb), we've secured a new domain and web hosting provider. This ensures the uninterrupted flow of information for years to come. Your involvement is crucial in growing our Patreon community, allowing us to persist in this meaningful endeavor.

Warm regards,
The Prince Albert and Area Gen Web Project Volunteer Team
