A neglected tombstone along the Mumias-Musanda Road, a stone's throw from the headquarters of the Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK) Mumias Diocese, marks the site where Anglican Bishop James Hannington's remains were once interred before being exhumed and transported to Namirembe, Uganda for final burial.

Within seven years, Hannington's remains were exhumed twice and buried three times.

Hannington arrived in Mombasa in January 1885 and travelled to Uganda, where he was assassinated on October 29, 1885.
