Description
Map of The West Indies displaying some Church of Scotland Foreign Missions. The map also contains an inset map of Scotland on the same scale.
In 1800 the Scottish Missionary Society sent three missionaries to Jamaica. Two died of yellow fever within weeks of arrival but the third became a pioneer missionary. In 1824 a second venture travelled to Jamaica by invitation of local planters to instruct their slaves.
