"The First Settlement; To begin at the beginning of our story,  we return to the turn of the century to the farming areas just south of the Canadian border,  populated largely by Norwegian immigrants...  Establishment of the Bohrson School District: It was in 1906 that the parents decided that the time had come for the formation of a school district of their own.    ...   It was to be made up of Sections 1-4,   9-16, 22-24 in Township 30,  Range 4,   West of the third Meridian," writes Gladys McJannet of the Bohrson School District 1644.  

The University of Calgary, Our Roots Nos Racines, has been undertaking an overhaul of their website.  The new system is easier to search and locate items such as local history books.  Our Roots Nos Racines has been digitizing local history books, and the new website has not finished the transition from the old URL address to the new.
