=== Home Missionary Society of India ===
An indigenous mission, HMSI was originally established as the Women’s Home Missionary Society of India in June 1905 “to rouse the Anglo-Indian and Eurasian Communities to a direct and responsible share in the evangelisation of India.” The founders were Dr. Eva. D’Prazer, Dr Nina Ottmann, Mrs Louise Marcar, and Miss T.M. Mergler.
The archives are not available, but Yale Divinity Library has digitized three of the mission reports: [http://hdl.handle.net/10079/digcoll/4763712 ''Report of the Women's Home Missionary Society of India (June, 1905-1908)'']; [http://hdl.handle.net/10079/digcoll/4763726 ''Proceedings of the Twenty First Conference, held at Bangalore, January 8-9, 1931'']; and [http://hdl.handle.net/10079/digcoll/4763779 ''Proceedings of the Thirtieth Conference, held at Bangalore, January 11-13, 1940''].
