W. Gale

William Kendall Gale (1873 - 1935) was a pioneering Methodist preacher. Born in Addingham he studied in London before returning to the village to become pastor of Mount Hermon Chapel. He left with his family for Madagascar in 1908 to serve as a missionary with the London Missionary Society.
He established over 250 churches in Madagascar.
He had intended to retire to Addingham in 1937, hoping to have established 300 churches. However, he suffered complications from an operation and died in 1935 in Anjozorobe, Tananarive.
