Preamble:
I am researching my great grandfather, Harry Couch, who had traveled to Saskatchewan with two Western Land Grants back in 1909 or so. And “Twin Hill” and “Rossduff” post offices are where his family had first settled temporarily, before relocating to their permanent homestead (?). My great grandfather’s two legal land descriptions of his permanent homesteads were; NE-31-23-10-W3 & SE-31-23-10-W3, which are located between Beechy and Lucky Lake. My great grandfather and his wife, Mary E. (Dodman) Couch had three children, Cyril Odin, Leona and Grace, before moving back to live in Ontario in 1927 or so.
Questions & Answers
1. Would anyone from the area of Moose Jaw, Swift Current , Weyburn or Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada know about “Twin Hill” and “Rossduff” post offices and how they possibly connect to my great grandfather’s family? I have obtained my great grandfather’s homestead application files from the Saskatchewan Archives Board and my great grandfather had indicated on both his applications that “Twin Hill” and “Rossduff” post offices were his current addresses (?). Would anyone know a current Town Name to use as a benchmark for these two historical post office locations - that don’t exist any longer?
2. Would also be very grateful if anyone had birth, death, church and one-room school house information about their children too: Cyril Odin, Leona and Grace. Likely Rob Roy school district #349 near Beechy and Lucky Lake (?).
