Charles Johnson (1850-1927) was a man of many parts - Anglican missionary, Zulu linguist, schoolmaster, and catechist. After the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879, Bishop Macrorie ordered him to proceed to Nqutu in western Zululand where he assisted the Hlubi chief, one of the 13 kinglets under the Garnet Wolsely settlement. Later he settled in the Rorke's Drift area at St Augustine's where he spread Christian knowledge by means of black evangelists and catechists. In 1900 he became Archdeacon of Zululand. A fine hospital commemorates his work among the sick.
