Looking for information on missionary to Gaboon Africa, Hermannn Jacot. His parents immigrated from Switzerland to the US. He studied theology, and was sent as a missionary to Africa in the early 1890s.

He died 29 Oct 1895 at Andende mission, near Lambarene.

His wife and two sons, Edouard and Roger returned to Switzerland, I believe.

I have a photo of his grave, in Africa.
