The poor trade results (some ebony and little more was obtained) hardly justified the difficulties of the settlers, who suffered from tropical illnesses and other problems.

) starting in 1888 for almost 100 years. They were engaged in community development, education, evangelism and medical work and also operated what was known as the "American School" and the "Missionary Children's Home" (MCH). The school is now a Maternelle and the MCH is the Mahavoky Hotel. In 1959 about 25 American Lutheran missionary families and quite a few single missionaries were living in over 20 towns in an area that ran roughly from Fort Dauphin northeast to Manantenina, west to Ranomafana, northwest to Tsivory, north to Betroka southwest to Betioky and southwest to St. Augustine. When the number of students seeking a US education in Madagascar on the island declined rapidly in the late 1970s, the school briefly moved to operate alongside an NMS school in Antsirabe in the mid-1980s until finally the very few remaining students began attending the American School in Antananarivo in the 1990s. American missionary families and other English-speaking families in Madagascar (including kids from other missionary organizations, NASA, and US Embassy employees living in Antananarivo) and for a time, even East Africa, sent their children to this boarding school. While most of the students were from the US, there were also Malagasy, Canadian and Norwegian students who went to this school, which from the 1960s to the end of the 1970s averaged 50 to 60 students per year in grades 1-12.

The Lutheran missionaries also traded land above the original Fort Dauphin harbor for what was then a sand dune, which became Libanona where the cottages on top of the hill were built as a place for R&R and to live while they were visiting their children at the school. There is also a section of the town's cemetery where quite a few American Lutheran missionaries and several others are buried. (For a history of the early work of these Lutheran missionaries see )

Modern era

Since the early 1970s, Fort Dauphin suffered an economic decline due to lack of good road connections to the rest of the country, rendering its port of local importance only.

Timeline

16th century
  • 1508 - Diego Lopez de Sequiera of Portugal anchors in first Ranofotsy, then Tolagnaro bay, finding metis Indians already living there and also at Manafiafy.


17th century
  • 1642-43 - First French colonial settlement in Anosy established by the French East India Company at Manafiafy, 40 km. northeast of Tolagnaro, but after 26 of the 40 settlers died within the first several months there, settlement was moved to what became Fort Dauphin.
  • 1643-73 - Several different French Governors of Fort Dauphin colony sought to conquer Anosy, pillaging and then burning hundreds of villages, killing thousands of Malagasy, enslaving others and stealing tens of thousands of cattle. During this time French living there also fought for several of the Antanosy kings. Fort Dauphin was a rough place to live. According to one source:



With the exception of some officers who feared God, there was neither order nor justice in the quarter of the Europeans. The most atrocious robberies were committed with impunity. The cattle of the natives was taken by force: they were massacred without mercy, when they did not give it cheerfully: they treated as an outrage upon temporals, the representations and complaints of a conduct so contrary to justice and humanity.

  • 1646 - 12 Frenchmen who had mutinied against Governor Pronis exiled with several Malagsy women are sent to Reunion, becoming the first residents of that island.
  • 1650 - For what Fort Dauphin looked like per Flacourt at this point in time, see the map above under "History."
  • 1655 - Most of Fort Dauphin burned down during festivities for the arrival of Governor Ponis.
  • 1658 - Flacourt's Histoire de la grande isle Madagascar is published in Paris, but then Flacourt dies when his ship is sunk by Corsairs on his return to Fort Dauphin.

  • 1672 - In October the Dunkuerquoise anchors in harbor, carrying amongst other things ?? teenage French girls, who were being sent to Reunion to become wives of the settlers there. They jumped ship, however, and were soon all married to Frenchmen, who in turn divorced their Malagasy wives. This soured relationships with the Antanosy to the point that at midnight of Christmas that year, over half the French colony was massacred. The rest of the colony was either already in or fled to the fort where they stayed awaiting a ship to rescue them.
  • 1674 - In September the White Pigeon, a company ship, came and evacuated all the surviving settlers to Reunion.
  • 1675 - A ship stopped at Fort Dauphin to find the settlement in ashes. French King Louis XIV decided to abandon the colony which cost shareholders 10 millions livres (over 1/7 the cost of what it took to build the Versailles Palace).


18th century
  • 1697-1705 - Abraham Samuel, Indian Ocean Pirate, a runaway mulatto
    Mulatto

     slave from Martinique, whose pirate ship washed ashore in Fort Dauphin bay, occupies the abandoned fort and is identified by a local princess as the child she had borne to a Frenchman during the occupancy of the colony. Thus he is declared heir to the vacant throne of the kingdom and, together with at least 45 other pirates, some who served as his bodyguards, as "King" Samuel, he conducts both piracy of ships stopping in the harbor and engages in warfare with a neighboring Antanosy kingdom after claiming rule over the old heartland of the Zafiraminy. This settlement rivaled St. Mary for some time.

In 1769 he introduced prickly pear cactus from Mexico to Fort Dauphin to protect the seaward side of the Fort from pirates and strong storms. In the next century it spread across southern Madagascar, as it became very popular as a way to enclose and protect both cattle and villages.


19th century
  • 1804 - French colony again at Fort Dauphin???

  • 1818-25 - French post at Fort Dauphin until Anosy was conquered by 4,000 Imerina. This included the French garrison at Fort Dauphin where the Imerina soldiers tore down the French flag and raised King Radama I's instead. They sent the 5 French soldiers and 1 officer there to Isle St. Marie and begin to extract taxes from the Antanosy. Fort has 800 Hova and some Sakalava troops for some time. This resulted in some of the Antanosy people moving west to the Onilahy valley near Bezaha.

Nilsen-Lund of the Norwegian Mission Society, for whom Hogstads worked, who helped them with their journey and to settle there. Rev. Hogstad and his wife began work on establishing a Lutheran church in Anosy, work which eventually expanded to encompass all of Anosy, Androy and the Mahafaly regions, with significant numbers of American Lutheran pastors, evangelists, educators and medical staff working in southern Madagascar for the next 100 years. However, having been sent with the blessing of the Queen of Imerina, they were asked to start working with an existing Imerina congregation located just outside the Fort in the midst of where the Imerina lived. While they were supported by the Imerina Governor in these efforts, this support meant they were viewed as collaborators with the hated Imerina by the Antanosy.[27]
  • 1889 - First 7 Antanosy youth baptized by Rev. Hogstad. Shortly thereafter the Hogstads began a Lutheran primary school, purchasing the liberation of Rabenjamina, a young local slave who'd been taught how to read and write in Antananarivo, who became the first teacher. Before long Hogstad had also started an evangelist training school, though 8of the 10 first students were either Betsileo or Imerina. In the next 10 years Lutheran Boarding Schools were established in Fort Dauphin for girls (1895, moved to Manafiafy in 1902, with another girls school established in Behara) and boys (1897, moved to Manantantely in 1921, where there also was a mission printing press).
