Luxton Saskatchewan

Unincorporated Area

Located on Sec 8, Township 5, Range 6, W2

Latitude- 49° 22' 00" N
Longitude- 102° 46' 02" W

Located in RM of Browning #34

My guess-
Possibly named after William Fisher Luxton (1844-1907)
Co-Founder and Editor of the Manitoba Free Press
but history books say it was named after a Canadian Poet / Writer?
Eleanor Luxton, (1908-1995) granddaughter of William,
wrote a book on Banff,  so could be named for her?

Later changed to Canadian National Railway
built in 1909 and called the Bienfait Branch, 16.4 miles
