Rinell Family¶
The Rinell family were Swedish Baptist missionaries who left Sweden in 1893 and arrived in China in 1894. Three generations lived in China; the last family members left around 1951 and eventually settled in Sweden and America.
Their history is told in Foreign Devils: A Swedish Family in China 1894 to 1951, assembled by Lennart Holmquist with contributions from family members.
