Abstract
[The April 2021 issue of the Journal of African Christian Biography (JACB) is
dedicated to the genesis of the Wesleyan Methodist Mission in the Gambia of
West Africa. Select biographies of agents who labored in this vineyard from 1821 to 1848 will serve to trace this history [see Table of First Generation of Wesleyan Methodist Missionaries in the Gambia (1821-1848)]. The focus will be on five out of the forty-six listed agents: John Morgan (served 1821-1825), John Baker (served 1821-1822), John Cupidon (served 1822-1848), Pierre Sallah (served 1831-1848), and William Fox (served 1833-1843)]
