Lyman Burton Peet and John Macgowan, Amoy and Foochow

Today I received the intriguing but unsigned email below (at the bottom of this post). I hope to hear more from them. It has been so hard obtaining information, photos, etc. for the proposed Amoy Mission museum we hope to open.

 My family was in Amoy / Pagoda Anchorage from 1847 till 1925. Three generations. Lyman Burt Peet and family went to China from Siam. His son Lyman Plimpton Peet became a missionary. His daughter Jennie married British missionary Rev Macgowan. His daughter Ellen Louisa married Rev George Henry Hubbard. Nellie was born there and died there in 1925. Her children were born in Foochow. My grandmother was her youngest. We have some photos and drawings.
