Comments

Edward Roye was born in Newark, Ohio. In 1846, attracted by the American Colonisation Society's promotion of the relocation of African Americans to the colony of Liberia in West Africa, Roye emigrated to the colony with his family at the age of 31. He served as the 5th President of Liberia from 1870 to his overthrow in 1871. He had previously served as the 4th Chief Justice of Liberia from 1865 until 1868.
