* Note: I have looked on the pages in the 1906 Canada census [Prairie Provinces] for the sec 32-42-14-W4th [Olaf's homestead land] but Olaf and family are NOT recorded, even though he had built a house in May 1906. Even though the enumeration date for the census was 24 Jun 1906.
1916 Canada Census ... Victoria sub 43, Twp 42, range 14 W4th; page 4; dw/fam 45 lin 15 ... most likely Olaf's homestead
