David Livingstone (1813-1872) studied medicine, but after he qualified decided to devote his life to missionary work in Africa. In November 1840 he was ordained a missionary and in December set off for Africa. From his base at Kuruman in South Africa he made a number of journeys into the interior of Africa, studying the people, nature and geology of the country. He was one of the first Europeans to see many important features of Africa including the Zambesi river, the Victoria falls and Lake Nyasa. Charles Livingstone, (1821-1873) emigrated to America in 1840 and studied theology in New York. He was given a pastoral charge in Massachusetts, but in 1857 his brother persuaded him to join his expedition to the Zambesi. He stayed with the expedition until 1863, when he was invalided home. From 1864 until his death he worked as a British Consul in Africa.
