Call to the East
China Missionaries: George Field Fitch and Mary (McLellan) Fitch
George was an 8th generation descendant of Rev. James Fitch of Norwich, Connecticut. He was born in Avon, Ohio, the son of Rev. Ferris Fitch. He attended Lane Theological Seminary and married his childhood sweetheart, Mary McLellan. After a brief stint as minister of a Presbyterian Church in Batavia. Ohio, they felt the "call" to serve as missionaries and were sent to serve in China. They spent the rest of their lives there, living through famines, floods, epidemics, and wars. When they died, they left behind a treasure trove of letters, reports, and other memorabilia -- the material for this book.
