Jonathan G. and Fyrne A. Yoder Correspondence and Films

  • US MCUSAA HM1/298
  • Collection
  • 1935-1989

Outgoing letters and 8mm films created by a medical missionary couple that served in Dhamtari, India. The letters, written by Jonathan Yoder to his family in the United States, are quite descriptive, providing reflections on his work as a physician, Indian cultural practices, and information about other missionaries serving in the same area. A transcription of the letters by Paton Yoder (1989) is available in the collection. The films are heavily spliced and include brief notes about their subjects. Six of the films were created by Jonathan Yoder's sister, Rhea Yoder, a teacher at Woodstock School. VHS viewing copies for all of the films are available.
