John Kizell was an American immigrant to Sierra Leone, who became a leader in Sierra Leone as it was being developed as a new British colony in the early nineteenth century. Believed born on Sherbro Island, he was captured and enslaved as a child, and shipped to Charleston, South Carolina, where he was sold again. Years later, after the American Revolutionary War, during which he gained freedom with the British and was evacuated to Nova Scotia, he eventually returned to West Africa. In 1792 he was among 50 native-born Africans among the 1200 mostly African-American Black Loyalists who were resettled in Freetown.

has abstract	John Kizell was an American immigrant to Sierra Leone, who became a leader in Sierra Leone as it was being developed as a new British colony in the early nineteenth century. Believed born on Sherbro Island, he was captured and enslaved as a child, and shipped to Charleston, South Carolina, where he was sold again. Years later, after the American Revolutionary War, during which he gained freedom with the British and was evacuated to Nova Scotia, he eventually returned to West Africa. In 1792 he was among 50 native-born Africans among the 1200 mostly African-American Black Loyalists who were resettled in Freetown. A Baptist, Kizell belonged to the congregation of African American David George (Baptist). After reaching Freetown, Kizell soon returned to his native Sherbro Island, which was just across the Sherbro River estuary from the mainland. Kizell had learned English in South Carolina, and he soon served as an intermediary between the British colonial government and the Sherbro on the island. The people were also predominant in the nearby mainland region. From about 1818 to 1820, Kizell worked with agents of the American Colonization Society, who had their own resettlement plan for free blacks from the United States. He worked with Samuel Bacon and , and with new African-American settlers, to help colonize the territory that would later become the Republic of Liberia. (en)
