Wakaw Hospital [Anna Turnbull Hospital]

  • SCAA-UCCS-0162
  • Corporate body
  • 1906–1942

The first hospital at Wakaw was built around 1906, sponsored by the [Presbyterian] Board of Women's Home Missionary Society, to serve the immigrants settled around Wakaw Lake (near the Geneva Mission, served by Rev. and Mrs. Arthur). It was named the Anna Turnbull Memorial Hospital, in honour of a local pastor's late wife. In 1911, a larger new building was constructed nearby for hospital activities and the old building was re-purposed to contain staff quarters and supplies storage.

In December 1942, the hospital was closed and the W.M.S. sold its contents and building (which was disassembled). The last doctor assigned there, Dr. R.G. Scott, retired in 1943 and was honoured by the Woman's Missionary Society, Saskatchewan Conference. The W.M.S. hospital would later be succeeded by the Dr. Scott Memorial Hospital, which opened in 1947.

  • Corporate body
  • 1925–1969?

Wallard Pastoral Charge was formed as a new aid-receiving United Church charge in 1925, part of Assinioboia Presbytery, with appointments at Wallard, Reliance and Buffalo Horn. It moved to Shaunavon Presbytery around 1926. As of 1940, Wallard is listed as part of the joint Pointeix-Wallard Pastoral Charge, consisting of Buffalo Horn, Glenvern, Gouverneur, and Reliance.

By the 1960s, Buffalo Horn was no longer listed. The Charge appears to have closed around 1969 (no longer listed in Year Books), though records suggest the congregation continued, in some form.
