Brenton Hamline Badley (1849-1891) American missionary, was born in Monmouth, Indiana in 1849. He was first assigned to the North India Annual Conference. He preached his first sermon in the local dialect within a short period, and spent the next four years preaching throughout the countryside. He later returned to Lucknow and served there until the end of his life.
