Gardnersville

Gardnersville or Gardnesville is a township in the Greater Monrovia District, Liberia.

During the Liberian Civil War, the area was war torn and thousands of refugees hid in buildings in Gardnersville and Chocolate City.[1][2] On 20 October 1992, two American nuns from the Precious Blood order were ambushed by soldiers of the National Patriotic Front of Liberia and murdered and had their vehicle stolen.[3] In 1993 the situation became so bad that the suburb became inaccessible.[4]

In 2018 President George Weah appointed Rev. David Roberts as Commissioner for Gardnersville.[5]
