Martin Johannes Zickmantel (1866-1922) was a missionary of the Herrnhuter Brüdergemeine. Having married Marie Agnes Hartmann in 1897, he served from 1898 to 1904 in Rutenganio and from 1904 to 1914 in Rungwe, staying also some time between 1912 and 1914 in Isoko. After the death of his first wife in 1903 in Rutenganio he married Elisabeth Louise Hartmann (1882-1963) in 1906. She served again from 1928 for many years in what is now Tanzania.
