Woman's Foreign Missionary Society (W.F.M.S.) of The Methodist Episcopal Church built an elementary school across the river from Kiukiang. What has distinctly emerged from these pictures is a missionary named Edith Fredericks. Ms. Fredericks (see picture below at right seated in the center) appeared to have devoted more than two decades (the mid-1910s through mid-1930s) to the children of Kiukiang. In addition to teaching at the W.F.M.S. organized Primary School, she might have also taught at the Anderson Day School (not sure).
