Abstract
[The English wife of the nineteenth century missionary to the Yoruba country, David Hinderer, Anna Hinderer (née Martin) was born in Hempnall, Norfolk, on March 19, 1827. She lost her mother at the age of five and was brought up by her father. At twelve she moved over to reside in the home of her grandfather and aunt, Rev. Francis and Mrs. Cunningham, in the parish of Lowestoft, England. [1] Her religious formation, which was temporarily slowed down by her mother’s death, received new impulse from her residence with the Cunninghams. The church environment made strong impression on her, and very early she grew desirous of making something of her life for God’s service. But she perceived that her adopted parents would consider her too young to do anything presently.]
