NameChina; Wenchow British Consulate; 1885-? 1900
BiographyOne of four new consulates established in the wake of the 1876 Chefoo Convention. Foreign trade failed to prosper at Wenchow, however, and by 1900, the consul, customs staff and missionaries were the only foreign residents in the area. The consul was soon withdrawn and replaced by monthly visits from the consul at Ningpo.
