It is believed Ambroli refers to the [[Gujarat]]i hometown of the migrants who settled in Mumbai, but it is not clear if that place is [[Amroli]]. Wilson&#039;s educational mission was planned at this site, which led to the founding of [[Wilson College, Mumbai|Wilson College]] and Wilson High School.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=oQ8BFk9K0ToC&amp;pg=PA742|title=Biographical Dictionary of Christian Missions|first=Gerald H.|last=Anderson|date=June 29, 1999|publisher=Wm.
