context_page_description: Pitcairn was a schooner built in 1890 for the Seventh-day Adventist Church for use in missionary work in the South Pacific. After six missionary voyages, the schooner was sold in 1900 for commercial use, and renamed Florence S. She was lost by stranding on the island of Mindoro, Philippine Islands, on 17 October 1912.
context_section_description: The fifth voyage left San Francisco on 19 May 1896 under John Graham.
  Passengers were Herbert and Millie Dexter, Joseph and Cleora Green, Jonathan and Sophie Whatley with their son, the nurse William Floding and the Pitcairn islanders Alfred and Arthur Young. The Whatleys stayed at Pitcairn. The Butz family boarded, having been transferred to Tonga, with the Pitcairners Maria Young and Tom Christian as assistants. James McCoy and the author Rosalind Amelia Young also joined the ship. Stops included Papeete, Rurutu, Rarotonga,  Aitutaki, Palmerston atoll and Samoa.
  The ship reached Tongatapu on 29 August 1986.
  Here Edwin Butz and his wife Florence disembarked.  
  They were accompanied by two Pitcairn Islanders, Sarah and Maria Young, descendants of Bounty mutineer, midshipman Ned Young. 
  In 1897 Dr. Merritt Kellogg and Eleanor Kellogg joined them.Pitcairn went on the Fiji, then on the return voyage visited Vanuatu, the eastern Solomon Islands and the Marshall Islands, where they were warned off by the German authorities. 
  She returned to San Francisco late in 1896, where she remained for over two years due to lack of funding.
