In addition to these detailed profiles, we have included on this website short profiles of roughly 1500 early Southern Alberta Pioneers. These have been scanned and converted to text from our book Pioneer Families of Southern Alberta that was published in 1993. Copies of this book, which has photographs and more information about our organization, can be found on the Alberta Historical Digitization Project and Canada's Local Histories Online web-sites or in the Glenbow Museum's Library and W.R. Castel Central Library in Calgary.

Since 1993, our Historical Committee has collected profiles of several hundred other pioneers. We are now pleased to provide access to those on this website as well.
