Sorry no listing for Mussel in Place Names of Alberta, 1928. In checking
Canada Post Offices 1755/1895 there is a listing "Musselboro (Selkirk-Man)
1885/1891 ... is Alberta 1891/1894, Altamont 1894/on". Perhaps someone can
pick up on this an find where Altamont is . Peers and Rosevear are/were
definetly in Alberta. Peers at 54-14-4, Rosevear at 54-5-5 (Township,Range,
Meridian). hth. ciao. doug.
