 Historical Documents vary depending on whether the settlement was started before or after 1905. From 1882-1905 the locality would be in the North West Territories, which was divided into three provisional districts: Assiniboia, Saskatchewan, and Athabaska. The 1881, 1891, and 1901 Census are the latest censeii released for this area. Sask Gen Web placename locations are within the North West Territories as of those census years.

 Placenames such as "The Summit" are also listed also as "Summit,The".
