Hi, I asked a friend about this and below is her reply. Regards, Carol (Tree Tops) FAMILY TREE & WELL MEET AGAIN - Free Query Service: SKY NEWS British TV Text Pages 267 & 268, CHANNEL 5 British TV Text Pages 488 & 489 http://freespace.virgin.net/tree.tops/ http://freespace.virgin.net/genealogical.collections Subject: Argyle place name The Geographic Board of Canada Place Names of Alberta for 1929 shows the following: Argyle; municipal district, north of Macleod (1912); probably after Argyllshire, Scotland It is not uncommon for difficulties to arise with place names in the west. Often they can refer to municipal districts or school districts (which do not appear on maps) rather than villages, towns or cities. They can be difficult to track down. Municipal districts and post offices were often used when vital statistics were registered. I would think this is likely the area you are looking for. I hope this helps to narrow down your research.
