- ↑ Petitions states that John, age 32, began building his house on 15 Oct 1902 and occupied it starting in July 1903. From 1 April 1905 until Dec 1906 (date of petition) his wife and family lived there. John was there as well, but part of the time went to Estevan and Bienfait to work as a carpenter.
In 1903 John cleared 5 acres, none in 1904, then 35 acres in 1905 and planted 30 of those. In 1906 he cleared 40 acres and planted a total of 65. By 1906 he had 5 horses a 14x22 house made of lumber and sod valued at $125, a stable worth $100, a granary worth $40 and a well worth $95.
The petition also stated that John was naturalized on 30 Nov 1905 as a Canadian citizen. This was a requirement to be able to get the "free" homestead land.
He received the patent for the homestead on 25 Feb 1907. After all that work, just 5 years later he would trade the homestead for a livery stable and move the family.
