Hi Dawn,
Does the Obituary mention the name of the Cemetery?
Are you able to visit the Cemetery ? Have you tried to contact the Cemetery Office?. Burials don't just take place - at random at any spot. -there is a grid with locations of grave sites. If there is no Cemetery office - available - the Municipality may hold these records. Or - the information may have been forwarded to the Provincial Archive in Edmonton.
There may be Volunteers at Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness - Alberta
http://www.raogk.org/alberta.htmSome travel about - take Cemetery Photo;s.
Have you obtained the Homestead Papers - ? from the Provincial Archive in Edmonton.you may find why they had problems with the properties.
They had to finish a specific amount of work within a certain length of time - or - some had very poor conditions made it difficult to farm etc.
Municipal Records - may show property information etc.
All property transfers / sales etc - are recorded - Check with Land Registry office - or ? - my memory fails me right now. I was able to trace my grandfathers - homestead and other properties - to the current. farm. There is a fee for search -may run to many dollars.
Public Library -for the location - as well Provincial Archive - may have directories - etc - that will show where the families lived -
George is your GGrandfather. Have you searched for information via you Grandparents records - Always best to start with now - and work back - sometimes amazing information can be found.
Cheers & Good Luck, Stella
