Summary
editDescription |
Hulda Stumpf (1867–1930), an American Christian missionary with the Africa Inland Mission in Kenya. Stumpf was murdered in Kijabe, Kenya, in January 1930, possibly because of her opposition to female genital mutilation. Injuries to her body suggested that her killer may have tried to circumcise her. |

The photographer and copyright holder are unknown. The photograph was probably taken when Stumpf joined the Africa Inland Mission in 1906 when she was around 40, and may be her passport photograph. She left the United States in 1907 and spent most of the rest of her life in Africa. The photograph may have been published in the United States by an Africa Inland Mission publication, Hearing and Doing, in two articles by or about Stumpf. One of the articles was entitled "Farewell Words," and appeared with her byline in the April–June 1912 edition. That article did include a photograph of her, but I haven't seen it yet, and don't know whether it is the same one. Inquiries continue. The first confirmed publication of this photograph was on the Billy Graham Center website in November 2003 (larger version). A copy of the photograph is in Stumpf's Africa Inland Mission personnel file. [1] The mission archives are maintained by Wheaton College's Billy Graham Center. Wheaton College writes: "Materials about Hulda Stumpf are located in Collection 81 - Records of Africa Inland Mission, International. Her personnel file covering the years 1906 to 1931 are in Box 24, Folders 22, 23, and 24 and newspaper clippings about her death are in Box 79, Folder 1." |
