Crane Valley, Saskatchewan

Edgewood, BC

This is a long shot but I don't know where else to ask besides the History forum.

I'm researching a man who stated in a passport application in 1924 that he had lived in Edgewood May-August, 1915. He also stated that he lived in Crane Valley during the exact same time period in 1916 (or 1917 as he stated in a later passport application).

He was a divinity student in Ohio in 1917 and was a missionary to China in the 1920s. What on earth would take him to those places in Canada for two summers? He was born in 1889.

Curiosity is getting the better of me, even though it's only a few months of his life.

Missionary to native tribes? That's the only thing I can imagine at that early date. Any other thoughts are more than welcome!
