Eva Harriet Campbell Munro

Island story

Eva Harriet Campbell was born in 1923 to Harold Campbell and Reta MacLellan and married John Thomas Munro in 1943. Her obituary records work in physical education and the YWCA as well as long involvement with Pictou Island community life, including the Island Community Association and later civic and volunteer activity. Eva’s story helps show how Pictou Island remained a community not only through permanent residence but through sustained family, organizational and seasonal ties. She and John share a Church Cemetery memorial at C-009. Her 2022 death is documented by obituary; the memorial had not yet been updated when photographed, and memorial presence is kept separate from proof of interment.
