History[edit]
Winnipeg's first permanent Bahá'í presence was established in May 1939 with the arrival of Rowland Estall, the only Bahá'ís having lived or visited there priorly being an unnamed believer (around 1910-1911),[2] and, in a brief visit on October 30, 1926, Queen Marie of Rumania,[2] the first Bahá'í monarch.
