November 15, 2006 at the Provincial Archives of Alberta I found some more stories of our relatives . I am running out of local histories to research, but I will probably check again next Wednesday after my shift at the Family History Center. Pioneers and Progress 971.233 AL26 PAA Page 815 Mr. and Mrs. Cleave Carson Page 816 Evans Carson family Surprisingly, I even found someone I wasn't looking for. I was looking for Dick Watson in the Crowsnest Pass history books, when I found a history of Frank Knight. Frank ownwed a string of sawmills in the Crowsnest Pass. Besides a family connection, as a teenager I worked for the summer at Edgewater Sawmills, where the sawmill was designed by Frank Knight.
