Elijah Johnson
Elijah Johnson (1789 – April 3, 1849) was an African American who was one of the first colonial agents of the American Colonization Society in what later became Liberia. He was probably born in New Jersey, received some limited schooling in New Jersey and New York, served as a soldier in the War of 1812 and studied for the Methodist ministry. He had two children out of wedlock, Lewis Johnson (1810 – 1838) and Charles Johnson (born 1812). He later married and had one daughter, Elizabeth (born 1818), with his wife Mary Johnson.〔

==Early life==
Elijah Johnson was of mixed raced ancestry, and was born about 1790 probably in New York. Two of his children that are seldom mentioned are Sarah (b. about 1811), and Elijah Johnson Junior (born about 1812). Sarah and her brother Elijah were left in an orphanage in Chester County in 1816. There was no mention of their mother's identity, but the father was listed as Elijah Johnson. He came into Pennsylvania from New York, prior to the War of 1812, in which he served. After the War, he studied at a Methodist school and was ordained as a minister of the Methodist church in northern New York. He is probably a descendant of Molly Brant, a Mohawk woman, and her white husband William Johnson.
