Changes

Established in 1706. Lutheran. The First missionaries came primarily from Denmark to India were the Germans Bartholomäus Ziegenbalg (1683–1719) and GermanyHeinrich Plütschau (1678–1747), who established the Tamil Mission at the Danish enclave of Tranquebar, in South India in 1706. In addition to working work in Tranquebar and the other Danish enclaves enclave of Tranquebar and Serampore, there were other mission stations along the Mallabar Coast. Some worked in India under the auspices of other societies or on secondment to them, so there may be additional material held elsewhere (e.g. SPCK, see entry above).
