200 remarkable Alberta women

 

by Kay Sanderson

This book was reviewed in the Fall 1999 issue of Chinook to coincide with its launch. To assist as a finding aid, Kay Sanderson has kindly agreed to have the Index published with annotations of the birth year of each person and also their place of birth, or residence prior to living in Alberta. Where appropriate and available, the maiden surnames are also shown prior to their married names.

 

The wealth of research material collected by Ms. Sanderson for this work has been donated to the Bert Sheppard Stockmen's Foundation Library And Archives near Cochrane, Alberta (located in what was previously known as the Western Heritage Centre) and can be accessed there during normal hours. It is also available at the Calgary Public Libary.
