About Henry Washington
Harry Washington was a Black Loyalist in the American Revolutionary War, enslaved for a time by Virginia planter George Washington, later the first President of the United States. After the British lost the war, he was evacuated to Nova Scotia. In 1792 he joined nearly 1,200 freedmen for resettlement in Sierra Leone, where they set up a colony of free people of color.
