Boian is an unincorporated community in Alberta, Canada. It is located in the floodplain of the North Saskatchewan River, 6 km east of Willingdon, in County of Two Hills No. 21. It is the oldest Romanian settlement in Canada. History The community was named for Boian, a Romanian village in Bukovina, from where the settlers originated. In the fall of 1903, the community began building a Romanian Orthodox Church, named by locals after one in their homeland, ''St Mary Orthodox Church''. It was completed in the summer of 1905. By the year 1909, the need for a local school became more immediate, so a small building was constructed in 1910; later a three room school was built from stone which was the largest rural school in Alberta. The Romanians of Boian did not have enough farmland to further homestead, so many of the first generation went on to form new Romanian communities in Pierceland, Saskatchewan and Manning, Alberta. Today, the former Boian Mare school is the Boian ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
