[1] In 1911, The Mail was started by Grover Cleveland Duncan in Munson, Alberta.
In September 1952, three Drumheller businessmen (John Anderson, Sam Robb, and Osborne Sheddy Sr.) purchased the newspaper from The Clarke Brothers.
John was the accountant, Sam was the Pressman, and Ossie was the young Salesman and Manager of the operations.
As of 2009 Drumheller Mail Ltd. is still owned by the Sheddy family and employs over 20 people.
In the past 100 years 15 newspapers have started in the area, and the "Drumheller Mail" has maintained the largest proven circulation.
