History
[Source - Chloe Rushovich for FHYA, 2020, using the Wikipedia article on Allan Francis Gardiner: Allan Francis Gardiner was a British Royal Navy officer and a missionary. He was born on 28 January 1794. After serving in the British Royal Navy, Gardiner travelled to southern Africa in 1834 to begin his missionary work. He started the first missionary station at Port Natal in South Africa. From 1834 to 1838, he worked to open Christian churches in Zululand. He also founded a mission at Hambanathi on near the Tongaat river. He left South Africa in 1838 and continued his missionary work around the world. Gardiner is believed to have died on 6 September 1851 on Picton Island where he had been attempting to open a mission.]
