Granville Sharp (10 November 1735 - 6 July 1813) was one of the first English campaigners for the abolition of slave trade. He also involved himself in trying to correct other social injustices. Sharp formulated the plan to settle blacks in Sierra leone, and founded the St.George's Bay Company, a forerunner of the Sierra Leone Company. His efforts led to both the founding of the Province of Freedom, and later on Freetown, Sierra Leone, and so he is considered to be one of the founding fathers of Sierra Leone. He was also a biblical scholar and classicist, and a talented musician.
