Abram Kean (July 8, 1855 – May 18, 1945) was a sealing captain and politician from Flowers Island, Newfoundland. He was famous for his success in sealing, with capturing over a million pelts, and infamous for his role in sending 78 men to their deaths in the 1914 Newfoundland Sealing Disaster. He embarked upon a career in the Newfoundland cod fishery at the age of 18 but quickly shifted his interests to the seal fishery in which he spent the vast majority of his marine career. In 1917, he was named skipper of the Royal Naval Reserve in St. John's by the British Emperor.
