This exhibit would not have been possible without the help of the following people and groups:
The Webb family – Elaine Crawford, Bob Crawford, Kelly Crawford, Louise Lowther, Ina Reed, Alan Reed, Donna Burr, Andrew Burr, Pat Jones, Terry Jones, and Brenda Jones – shared Myrtle’s diary, family snapshots, memorabilia, reminiscences, and much else.
Library and Archives Canada; the Public Archives and Records Office of Prince Edward Island; Parks Canada, Halifax; and the Archival and Special Collections, University of Guelph also provided photographs.
Blake Butler, Kenny Reilly, Sadie MacEachern, and Genevieve Warner assisted in transcribing the diary.
Joshua MacFadyen created the map and photomosaics.
Brenda Jones provided the animal sketches.
The Knowledge Mobilization and Research-Creation program at Western University, as well as Bob and Elaine Crawford and Louise Lowther, provided financial support.
Myrtle Webb provided her heart, mind, and soul. She would undoubtedly be surprised but, I hope, pleased that what she has written lives on.
