Although the American Board for Foreign Missions sent the first American missionaries to the PNW (the Whitmans and the Spaldings), the first missionary to the PNW was in fact Spokane Garry, who left eastern Washington in 1825 for the Red River Mission in Canada and returned in 1829 as a converted Christian who independently taught his tribe from The Bible.
