CROZIER, Mr George Lindsay             FNZPPA
b Galashiels, Scotland 25.5.1914;
w Mary Eliza Jane nee Jacobs b Greymouth 24.2.1920 m 1949 d. Christchurch 2012. Mary trained at the
Presbyterian Women’s Training Institute, Dunedin from 1944 to 1946.
A Baptist, Lindsay came out to New Zealand as a child, educated at St. George Primary School
and Southland Boys’ High School, Invercargill.
Worked as a professional photographer in Gore
Appealed against war service in 1939 due to his pacifist views and his was one of a very small
proportion of appeals which succeeded. He was then “manpowered” on military pay in Dunedin
before entering the Dunedin Teachers’ Training College. However pressure from the RSA forced
the College to enforce ‘leave of absence’ on all conscientious objectors for the duration of the war.
Volunteered to join a unit of the Friends Ambulance Unit working in China which had been sponsored
by the NZ Society of Friends (Quakers). Sailed first for India then flew from Dum Dum near Calcutta to
Kunming in Western China.
Whilst the Sino-Japanese war continued, their ambulance unit worked in “Free [Nationalist] China”,
keeping the Mission hospitals supplied (although most of the Missionaries had gone home), and
hauling medical supplies through Free China. Lindsay’s work mostly involved hospital equipment repairs
and servicing, including making and servicing artificial limbs which were made from aluminium obtained
from crashed  Japanese and American bombers (“Motto : “Bombers into Bedpans”).
Once the war was over, their unit moved into previously occupied regions of China to take over hospitals
formerly run by the Japanese military and assisted in getting them operating again.
Spent some time working with 700 Japanese prisoners of war at a hospital at Hankow where his unit
additionally acted as a ‘team of reconciliation’ as well as getting the hospital running again.
Towards the end of his work with the Friends Ambulance Unit he was asked by them to undertake some
still photgraphic work including cine filming. Towards the end of this period in 1948, he was asked to film
the work of the NZ Presbyterian Mission at Kong Chuen in colour (Film entitled “Oi Wa”, 1948).
After three years in China he returned to New Zealand in 1948 via Tokyo where he was honoured as the
“Benefactor of Hankow”due to his work with the Japanese prisoners there.
While back in NZ he met and married Mary Jacobs, a Presbyterian Deaconess.
Decided to return to China and join the work of the NZ Presbyterian Mission in South China.
Appointed Compound and Works Manager for 5 years at Kong Chuen, Canton 15.9.1948
Set apart by SP  28.1.1949; sailed for China 11.2.1949. 
He was engaged in part time language study, supervising the maintenance of Mission buildings,
equipment and new installations on the Mission Compound including the residences,
Po Wai Hospital, Tak Kei School, and some out-stations. With his photographic skills, he also
prepared photographs, slides and films to meet the demands of publicity. 
Both Lindsay and mary spent 10 months working under the new Communist regime.
Before leaving China he filmed the work of the New Zealander Rewi Alley at the Shandan Industrial
Co-Operative School, the film was returned to Rewi Alley for their archive in 1985.
Left China 29.8.1950 due to the desire of the new China to be free of foreign intervention and support.
Appointed Manager of the newly created Presbyterian Church Photographic Unit, Christchurch c.1951
which was set up to undertook film work for Church publicity and Mission promotion purposes,
including publicity, film and later also sound work for other Assembly Committees.
His contribution to the Publicity work of the Church was highly significant.
Field & Publicity Officer, Presbyterian Social Services Association, Wellington 1.6.1970 - retired 30.6.1977
Returned to China for a visit c.1977 where he and Mary were treated as honoured guests of the Chinese
Government. “It was a tribute to what the Friends Ambulance Unit had tried to do in human relationships”.
Retired to St Alban’s, Christchurch where he maintained, along with Mary, a strong interest and
involvement in the Church and its Mission work.
Died  10.2.1992
