John Berry Meachum (1789-1854) was an African-American businessman, educator and founder of the oldest black church in Missouri. == Early life==
Meachum was born into slavery in Goochland County, Virginia on May 3, 1789. He was taken to North Carolina and then Kentucky by his owner, where he learned several trades, including carpentry. At 21 years old, he had earned enough money from carpentry to purchase his own freedom and, shortly afterwards, the freedom of his father. His wife Mary, still enslaved, was taken by her owners to St. Louis in 1815, but Meachum was able to buy her freedom as well and moved to St. Louis to be with her.〔(John Meachum, http://www.blackpast.org )〕
