Pioneer Profiles
Southern Alberta Pioneers. www.pioneersalberta.org "Ellis, Albert John" "Albert Ellis came to High River in the early 1880's. In 1890 he married Emmaline Mary Banister, who was born 18 July, 1864 at Dorset, England and died 3 November, 1953 at Calgary. Mr. Ellis filed a homestead and was a trader in the High River area." ________________________________________________
abgensoc.ca (Alberta Homestead Records 1870-1930) has a file showing Albert J Ellis applied for a homestead. The provincial archives of Alberta holds these files, but again, I don't know how much detail is contained in the original application. I think that anyone in Edmonton can go into the archives and look up the file and it's my understanding that the Alberta Genealogy Society did the work to put these applications into a database for the Archives
