Annie Boyle Hore was born in 1853. In 1881, a member of the Wesleyan Missionary Society living in Bedford, she married Edward Coode Hore (1848-1922), the surveyor of Lake Tanganyika. In 1877 Edward Hore had been appointed scientific officer of a large expedition to Tanganyika with the aim of establishing a mission station and the foundations of a European settlement. The Hores left England for Zanzibar with their infant son Jack and with eight others in May 1882. Illness and obstacles meant that Mrs Hore's first two attempts to travel with Jack from the coast to the interior of Africa were unsuccessful. Mrs Hore admits that her attitudes towards Africans changed after she had reached her destination. Mpwapwa has always been a place of importance, although nothing much in itself
