Please see PMB 191. These papers form part of the records of the Vicariate of Tonga which are designated Oceania Tonga (OT) in the Marist Archives.

Reverend John Geddie was a Presbyterian missionary who left Nova Scotia, Canada, for the New Hebrides (Vanuatu) in 1846. He reached Aneityum in May 1848 in the mission ship John Williams. Geddie was accompanied by his wife Charlotte Geddie (nee MacDonald, 1822-) and Thomas Powell of the London Missionary Society (LMS). Powell left the island after about a year, and the Geddies remained with Samoan LMS teachers. The mission was joined in 1852 by the Rev. John Inglis and his wife, who established a station on the northern side of the island. Meanwhile, Geddie had begun printing books in the Aneityumese language - the first being a spelling book, with readings from Scripture, hymns and prayers. During the next few years many similar works and translations of the Scriptures were published. Geddie retired to Australia in 1872, and died soon afterwards.

Thirteen folders of letters, newspaper articles, etc. concerning Geddie's life and the Presbyterian church of his time. Each folder contains an index which appears on the microfilm. See also PMB MS 418 for Geddie's diaries, 1848-58.
