Campagna di Roma. Tomb of the Plautian Family on the road from Rome to Tivoli

Thomas Birch Freeman (1809-1890) was a British Methodist missionary to West Africa, born in Hampshire the son of a freed slave. He was accepted as a Wesleyan Methodist missionary in 1837, after he had been head gardener on a Suffolk estate. His vision, tact, humanity, energy, and durability underlie the now substantial Methodist presence in Ghana, Western Nigeria, and Benin.
