In 1890, George and Margaret Wright made the move west from Ontario to the Saskatchewan prairies. They settled near Kenlis SK and raised a family in all of ten children.
Their son William, made the journey to rejoin his parents a year later, and by 1902 had acquired his own quarter and begun construction on this impressive two story home.
Sometime after its completion in 1905, William married Gertrude, and together they filled the house with a family of their own.

William and Gertrude left seeking a quiet retirement in Regina sometime in the 60's, and the house has been empty since.

George and Margaret rest in the family cemetery, just a stone's throw from their sons house.

There is a great video walkthrough of this incredible prairie mansion on Youtube, filmed by my friend and fellow seeker of the abandoned, Robert Scott Photography.
