1906 /1911 Canadian census in SK

1906 /1911 Canadian census in SK

Surnames: BUKOWSKY
Could some kind and clever person please find a family for me on the 1906 and/or 1911 Canadian census? I've tried every variation of the name I can imagine and still haven't found them. They arrived in Canada in 1904, so they should be on both censuses. They farmed at Fish Creek which I understand is in the Batoche area near Rosthern, SK. The surname is correctly spelled BUKOWSKY but . .
Their forenames and dates of birth are as follows -
Balteser 1854
Elizabeth 1863
Joseph 1885
Ferdinand (Fred) 1887
Wilhelmina (Minnie) 1894
Jacob 1897
Peter 1905

It's possible that in 1906 Fred was already working on the railroad, but where is the rest of the family?
In 1911, I CAN find Fred already married (in the Prince Albert area) and Joe is visiting him, but I cannot find the family on the farm. Any help would be MOST welcome. Thank you. Florence

There is a great Fred Bukowsky story in the Rosthern history book on-line. This is a direct link http://www.ourroots.ca/e/page.aspx?id=2883794 Joseph is mentioned in another book as living near Cedoux, just north of Weyburn. http://www.ourroots.ca/e/page.aspx?id=1042293 I'll see what I can find in the census.

Yes, thanks. I have a copy of the book Furrows. That Fred Bukowsky was my maternal grandfather. The family came from German-Russia and spoke only German. They lived exclusively in Fish Creek except for Fred who worked on the railroad and lived in Duck Lake before he moved to Rosthern. I don't think the Polish man mentioned in the other story is Fred's brother. Joe never left the farm.

Thank you! I have since found them on the 1916 and 1921 census but still no luck with the 1906.

We have to be creative with the spelling of names . Surname as well as given name.
There are errors - made in transcribing from the Original - sometimes because the original is in bad condition - Also spelling of names - depends on what the Enumerator - thought he heard.
RE BUKOWSKI - can also be BUKOWSKI - BUKOWSKIJ

Yes, thank you, that is the correct family and I already found those two notations as well as the one in 1921. It's the 1906 that I haven't yet found. I have put in a correction that the 1911 Mary should be Minnie. Also the only Helena in the family was a niece born 1902 and her surname was Friedrich.
