Mr. and Mrs. William MacKendrick will never be forgotten by the group who 
     
     put on the plays to raise money for the church. They opened their home to the 
     
     players for rehearsals two and three times each week. They also coached and en- 
     
     couraged the players. The MacKendricks were faithful members for many years and 
     
    
   
   
    
     Mrs. MacKendrick worked for many years in the Sunday School. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Mrs. Louisa Thomson was very small in stature, not over five feet tall and 
     
     weighing less than one hundred pounds, yet she was mighty in deeds. She was left a 
     
     widow while still quite young, and the mother of eight children, six of them still at 
     
     home, the youngest five years old. It can be truly said no one was ever turned away 
     
     from her home without being given a meal. She cared for her family, nursed the 
     
     sick, acted as mid-wife in many cases, taught in the Sunday School, and for many 
     
     years was church janitor. Her children were active in the Sunday School and the 
     
     girls sang in the choir. Louisa Thomson was a very dear friend to everyone and will 
     
    
   
   
    
     long be remembered. 
     
    
   
   
    
     The James MacKay Family, which was a large family, all aided in the singing 
     
     and were active in fund raising and repairing the church. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Mrs. Harry (Ethel) Thomson is among the saints who from their labors rest. 
     
     Her contributions to the Campbellton Church were very great, having taught 
     
     Sunday School for some years, travelling by horse and wagon and sleigh. In 1937, 
     
     she was asked to become the organist. Lottie MacNeill had resigned due to ill health 
     
     and Ethel Thomson took the task and also continued to teach some times in winter 
     
     when the roads were impassable. She and her husband would walk the two miles to 
     
     church, never complaining. Ethel continued as organist and teacher until 1966.
