Nancie Monelle

Nancie Monelle Mansell, M.D.

Nancie Monelle Mansell (née, Monelle; 1841–1903) was an American physician. She was the second physician sent out by the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and the first woman doctor who went out alone as a missionary into an Indian Princely State. Mansell fought against Indian baby marriages, pleading that the marriageable age of girls be raised to 14 years.
