List of Sierra Leone Creole people

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The list of Sierra Leone Creole people is an incomplete list of notable individuals of Creole ethnicity and ancestry. The Sierra Leone Creole people, who are also referred to as (Krio: Krio people), are the descendants of African-Americans, Jamaican Maroons and Liberated Africans who settled in Freetown between 1787 and around 1885.[1][2][3]

This list is ordered by category of human endeavour. Persons who have a Wikipedia article containing references showing that they are of Sierra Leone Creole descent, and have made significant contributions in two fields, are listed in both of the pertinent categories, to facilitate easy look-up.
