Searching for descendants or relatives of William Henry Bachelder. "Bill" Bachelder moved from Castalia, Iowa to a homestead near Luseland, Saskatchewan in the spring of 1911 with 8 of his 11 children. He was most likely inticed to the move by the Luse Land and Development Co., of St. Paul, MN. Bill's oldest son, William "Roy" Bachelder was already married as was Bill's oldest daughter, "Floy Alspaugh". Roy and Floy and their families moved with Bill. A few years later Bill moved south to a farm near Empress, Alberta (but still in Saskatchewan). Bill died in January of 1932 and is buried in or near Empress. Bill's son Roy had 12 children. Roy later moved to Rocky Mountain House, Alberta. Roy died in 1969 and is buried in Red Deer, Alberta.
