Custodial history

Most of these photographs were donated directly by Eva McKitrick. Some materials were given to the archives as loan to copy, where the originals were returned to the donor. Accession A2000-138 and A2024-44 were received via the Edmonton Public School Archives and Museum, which included photographs they had received from Eva McKitrick of the Llanarthney School for Girls and other Edmonton area schools not part of the Edmonton Public School system.

Scope and content

This series consists of photographs Eva had collected throughout her life. They include photographs of life in Edmonton, including of groups such as the Irish Canadian society, the Drew Machine Co. that her family worked at, Fort Edmonton Refurbishers, holidaying at Riviere Qui Barre and Elk Island Park, and schools and students that she or her family members taught at. The schools include a Teacherage near Myrham, Alberta in 1915, Victoria High School in Edmonton in 1911, Cecilia Jeffrey Boarding School (Residential School) near Shoal Lake or Lake of the Woods by Kenora, Ontario in 1905-1906, a school in Stirling Alberta in 1906-1908 and the Llanarthney School for Girls in Edmonton from 1933-1939.
