Albert Ernest Richardson (born c. 1868)[1] was educated at Oxford High School, London City Technical College and the University of Oxford obtaining a B.A in 1894, M.A. in 1897 and B.D. in 1901.

He initially offered his services as a missionary to the CMS in 1895 but this was deferred. He was ordained as a deacon in 1896 and as a priest in 1897 and between 1896 and 1898 was curate of St Clement's, Ipswich. In 1898 he was accepted as missionary and left for Lagos and then went overland to Tripoli as a member of the pioneer missionary party to Hausaland, Nigeria led by Bishop Herbert Tugwell. In 1902 again offered his services to the CMS and this time was accepted and in 1903 he went to Bombay.

gollark: And it's a single HTML file.
gollark: TiddlyWiki is quite unique because much of the UI is editable from within TiddlyWiki in somewhat weird ways.
gollark: If you do want to do this sort of thing I would probably recommend python, because I arbitrarily like it.
gollark: https://www.dokuwiki.org/dokuwiki is what I use now, it's a selfhosted open source wiki with decent plugin support.
gollark: https://tiddlywiki.com/ is neat, https://github.com/athensresearch/athens/ could be good but is very experimental, https://obsidian.md/ is not open source but apparently runs on a directory of local markdown files so you don't have lockin issues, https://github.com/logseq/logseq apparently exists but I've never used it and it has a closed source backend, https://foambubble.github.io/foam/ is nice if you like VSCode.
