Dr George Turner was one of the earliest missionaries to Samoa in 1840, publishing the first extensive study on the natives of Samoa and his notes on Polynesia, which became the standard authority on the subject. He also wrote extensively in the Samoan dialect. See link in this record to a short article on Turner's life.
