Shantipur Leprosy Hospital India

from Mennonite Church USA Archives

  • Carol Dietzel said:
    My father (AJ Dietzel) was Superintendent of Shantipur Hospital and member of British Mission to Lepers 1948-1953. Dietzel and 5 boys pose for the camera in 1952. Boys pictured would NOT have been leprous, but would’ve been healthy children of patients. In 1950, Dietzel started school and hostel for the children; in addition to adding spinning and weaving to vocational training for patients, and rice fields. (In 1921, British bought 120 acres, built buildings for Shantipur Leper Home, and staffed it via USA Board of Missions.)

    Thank you for the clarification.
