Notes - Per Lauretta (Allen) Boulton: "Came west to Dauphin, Man. in April 1900. Went to Bowbells, North Dakota in 1903 but came back to Canada in 1905 and bought land just 1 mile from Tyvan, Saskatchewan which was a new town, just opening up. They farmed till 1912, when they moved into town and built a nice new home, which became the beauty spot of the town, as Robert Allen loved flowers and he spent his time mostly in his garden. He did a lot of building out through the country when he first came to town to live as he was still quite a young man."
