George Grenfell (1849-1906) Was an English missionary and explorer, born at Sancreed, near Penzance, Cornwall. In 1875 he went as a Baptist missionary to Cameroon, West Africa, with Alfred Saker (1814-80), and thereafter did some exceedingly important work in exploring little-known rivers of the Congo Basin.
