Passchendaele School located on the North West quarter of section 10 township 41 range 4 west of the third meridian near the village of Hague, Saskatchewan. Hague locates on the SW quarter of section 7 TSP 41 RGE 3 W3 Note: there are two shots of the same class at the Passchendaele school
My father was William Eldon Janzen, DDS (1896-1977). I’m going to send you the album pages first and the cropped pictures in the next email. One of his students in Passchendaele school was his younger sister, Edna, as labelled, but I don’t know which girl she was. The album page scan is the image at the bottom of the page. He started teaching in 1915 or 6 I think.
I don’t know which class Edna was in. She’d be 8 in 1916, and 10 in 1918, etc. I seem to have decided the girl at the back of the classroom was her because of her stance.Cheers,
Sandra
