There is a Saskatchewan mailing list. The people on that list might be able to help you.

LaVerne Saw your request, and happen to live in Saskatchewan, Canada. Canadian regulations are quite different from the US, and I believe the last census available to the public is 1906. Since you are looking in Saskatchewan, it might help to go to this link: http://www.collectionscanada.ca/02/0201_e.html through which you can get to both the 1901 Census of Canada (not indexed, I'm afraid, but if you know the name of the town you are looking for you can use the link near the bottom of the page for Electoral maps to find the appropriate district names, numbers, etc to guide you to the right image pages) and the 1906 Census of the "Northern Provinces" (Includes Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba but also not indexed). You could also check here: http://automatedgenealogy.com/index.html as there is a partial index for both 1901 & 1906, I believe. Roughly what time frame & area are you looking at for information? If you could let me know, I may be able to get ahold of a few other links for you... also might not hurt to include names. Good luck in your search. Lana Piche' Saskatchewan, Canada
