There are 6 listed for Louis Vermette but 4 of them are obviously for Manitoba so using the following aids you can sort out which one belongs to your relative.

1. Dominion Land Grant site
http://www.archives.ca/exec/naweb.dll?fs&02011102&e&...
(also below)
2. Then take the above number and put them into here-
Coordinate Converter :
http://www.maptown.com/coordinates.html
3. But # 2 gives the reading in decimals so go to this next site , which will put the numbers in minutes and seconds:
http://www2.arrl.org/locate/grid.html
4. Lastly , if you want to find the nearest town to the land grant go to this last site and scroll down to the list and the third one says "Query by point coordinates"

If you need the Sask Archives address to send away for the files , just get back to me
