text:
Robert J. Patterson (1809–1884) was a former slave and a restaurateur in Saint John, New Brunswick. Patterson was born enslaved in Richmond, Virginia, in November 1809. He escaped slavery in 1842 and made his way north first to New York and then to Boston, where he lived for ten years. As the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 made life increasingly dangerous for African Americans living in northern states, in 1852 Patterson decided to leave the country, relocating to the British colony of New Brunswick
