Island story
Joyce MacLean was a daughter of John H. MacLean and Margaret Ann “Maggie” MacLean. The 1931 Pictou Island census records seven-year-old Joyce in their household with siblings Gerald, Flossie, Anderson and Alvin. The early-2000s Sutherland Cemetery survey records Joyce on a separate memorial with the dates 6 March 1924–16 October 1987, while her parents are commemorated nearby at C-013. The surviving evidence securely establishes her childhood family and memorial identity, but PIHS does not yet have enough person-specific adult-life evidence for a fuller narrative.
