Notes for John (Spouse 1)
He studied for the ministry, and was ordained as a missionary by a council of ministers at Newark, N. J., Nov. 17, 1853. On the 30th of the same month, in company with Rev. George Thompson, Messrs. Pierce and Herrick, with their wives and a Miss Smith, he sailed for Africa. They arrived at Freetown, Africa, on the 4th of January, 1854, and after a brief stay they embarked for Good Hope, where they arrived January 13. After a little more than two months of missionary labor at Good Hope, in which he took great delight, he was stricken down with fever and died, after a short illness, at the Good Hope Missionary Station, on April 23, 1854. Although his stay was short, yet many heard from his lips the heavenly news of salvation for the first time, and the harvest of the seeds he scattered eternity will measure.8
