The Aandahl Family of Hsinchu

Introduction

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Commentary by Loren Aandahl.

 

The Rev. Elliot and Mrs. Ruth Aandahl arrived in Hsinchu in January 1954 and resided there until 1977.

During this nearly 24 year period they both served as missionaries in various capacities with several organizations.

The photographs shown here were taken by Elliot Aandahl using Kodachrome film.  Most of these photographs have been kindly restored by Bruce Rayle, whose family is also in this Hsinchu section.

The photographs were selected and the text written by Loren Aandahl, the Aandahl’s youngest child, who lived in Hsinchu from 1954 until graduation from high school in 1970.

The main subject matter of these photographs pertain to the Aandahl’s initial missionary term in Hsinchu from January 1954 until December 1958.
