Sheldon Dibble (1809–1845) was a missionary to Hawaii who organized one of the first books on Hawaiian history, and inspired students to write more. ==Early life== Dibble was born in Skaneateles, New York on January 26, 1809. He graduated from Hamilton College in 1827, and the Auburn Theological Seminary in October 1830, where he married Maria M. Tomlinson (1808–1837). They arrived in the fourth company from the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions in 1831 on the ship ''New England'' from New Bedford. He was one of the youngest missionaries, only 22 years old when he arrived. They had a son who died young and a daughter Maria. After the death of his first wife, he married a cousin of his first wife, Antoinette Tomlinson (1809–1897), in 1839. They had a son Seymour and a daughter Clara. Antoinette and the children moved back to the United States in 1848.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sheldon Dibble」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
