Cardston is a town in Alberta, Canada. It was first settled in 1887 by members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) who travelled from Utah, via the Macleod-Benton Trail, to present-day Alberta in one of the century's last wagon migrations.[7] The founder of the town was Charles Ora Card. The combined church and school was completed by January 29 the year following their arrival.[8]
