Jump to
John Ker (1789–1850) was an American surgeon, planter and politician in Louisiana. Together with several major Mississippi planters, in the 1830s Ker co-founded the Mississippi Colonization Society, promoting removal of free American blacks to a colony in West Africa (later Liberia). The state group modeled itself after the American Colonization Society, where Ker later served as a vice president.
