Uganda Journal - Vol 33, p. 213 - The Rev. F. Rowling was an outstanding missionary and linguist of his day. Eleanor Browne was a member of the first party of women missionaries to reach Uganda in 1895. Both had been in Uganda during the first months of the mutiny, but the crisis had passed when they were married on February 1898. They left almost at once for England before the official despatch noting those who had rendered service during the mutiny had been prepared. This may account for the omission of their names from the list of those 32 missionaries recorded as having been awarded the medal [Uganda Mutiny Medal], in Uganda Journal Vol. 10 (1946) p. 147. This omission was seemingly realised at some later date and, though Mrs Rowling was still Miss Browne when her service was rendered, the medal was issued in her married name. They retired from Uganda in 1921. She died in 1940. He married again but himself died 9 March 1949. The second Mrs Rowling who had not shared her husband's life in Uganda may not have appreciated the significance of these medals.
