Title South Africa in Records from Colonial Missionaries, 1819-1900
Description

South Africa in Records from Colonial Missionaries, 1819–1900 was curated in association with the Bodleian Library

This collection contains records compiled by the United Society Partners in Gospel (USPG), a UK-based Anglican missionary organisation that operates globally. From the eighteenth to the early twentieth century, the USPG went by the name of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts (SPG). 

This collection contains letters and supplementary material relating to SPG missionaries who worked in South Africa during the period 1819–1900. These documents contain a wealth of information regarding the progress of the mission, financial concerns, and movements of people. The sources in this collection likewise detail the number of people who attended Anglican services. The papers provide students and researchers with unique insights into the evolution of the SPG. They also shed light on the broader diffusion of Christianity throughout South Africa.
