NEFF, FELIX (1798-1829)

This article appears in Volume V19, Page 342 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: NAN-NEW
NEFF, FELIX (1798-1829) , Swiss
Protestant
  divine and philanthropist, was
born
  at Geneva on the 8th of
October
  1798. Originally a sergeant of artillery, he decided in 1819 to devote himself entirely to evangelistic
work
 . He was ordained to the
ministry
  in 1822, and soon afterwards settled in the valley of Freissinieres, where he laboured in the manner of J. F.
Oberlin
 , being at one and the same time pastor, schoolmaster, engineer and agriculturist. He was so successful that he changed the
character
  of the
district
  and its inhabitants. In 1827, worn out by his labours, he was obliged to return to his native
place
 , where he died two years later.
