Notes

Reverend Thomas Thompson instigated this Mission, arriving at Cape Coast Castle in 1752. The period from 1903 onwards is the most substantially documented, recording the amalgamation of the Missions for the Gold Coast, Sierra Leone and Nigeria, the spread of English education, the introduction of education for women and the development of missionary work in an ever-widening area.
From the Archives of the USPG, now held at Rhodes House Library, Oxford.
