Description
“A couple of missionary households (African Inland M.)” Group portrait of two families gathered at the steps of a house possibly at Kijabe. The African Inland Mission (AIM) was founded in 1895 by Peter Cameron Scott and had a substantial number of stations in Kenya. The Rev. Frederick McKenrick [far left] was an American Presbyterian Missionary. Elizabeth (Betty) McKenrick (nee Pierson) sits next to him holding their baby girl Flora. The two girls in the centre are probably Mr McKenrick’s children from a previous marriage. ❧ This image is from an album chronicling the time that Dr Archibald Clive Irvine (1893-1974) spent at Tumutumu (1919-1921) and some of the early years at Chogoria.
