Saskatchewan Town
and RM (Rural Municipality)
History Books
Compiled by Glenn Schwartz
The following table lists Saskatchewan local history books dealing with communities where known or possible Zichydorfers lived. The table combines town names and RM names into a common list for ease of cross-referencing.
Column 1 – Number of Rural Municipality (RM).
Column 2 – Name of Rural Municipality or Town.
Column 3 – If the entry in column 2 is a town, column 3 lists the RM in which that town lies. If the entry in column 2 is an RM, column 3 lists the towns in that RM or near its border in neighbouring RMs.
Column 4 – Libraries in which the book can be found: p = Province of Saskatchewan, Dept. of Culture & Youth Resource Library; r = Regina Public Library, Prairie History Room; s = Saskatchewan Genealogical Society Library; u = University of Regina Library.
Column 5 – Year of publication.
Column 6 – Title of book.
Notes:
1 – If an entry is in ALL CAPS, there is at least one book dealing specifically with that RM or that town and the surrounding area. A book about the RM covers the whole RM. A book about a town covers the town and the surrounding district, often including other nearby towns. Town names may be listed under more than one RM if they are near a boundary. Where a town and an RM have the same name, the capitalized entry reflects the emphasis of the book.
2 – If an entry is underlined, it indicates that town is covered as part of a larger area and specifically named in a subtitle. If an entry is capitalized and underlined there is a book specifically about that town/RM as well as a book that lists it in a subtitle.
