Martha J. Harvey was the driving force behind the creation of the York-Sunbury Historical Society in 1932. She was an active member of Fredericton Society and of organizations such as the Women’s Institute, the IODE and Saint Andrew’s Presbyterian Church. Born in Fredericton, she married John Harvey who owned Harvey Studios. She resided at 245 York Street until her death in 1934. The York-Sunbury Historical Society’s award “for outstanding contribution in the field of New Brunswick history” is named in her honour.
