"Raccoon" John Smith (1784 – February 28, 1868) was an early leader in the Restoration Movement.
 His father, George Smith (originally Schmidt) was of German ancestry, and may have been born in Germany, while his mother, Rebecca Bowen Smith, was of Welsh and Irish ancestry.
 He played a critical role uniting the movement led by Thomas and Alexander Campbell with the similar movement led by Barton W. Stone and in spreading the message of the movement over much of Kentucky.
Elizabeth Key Grinstead (1630 – after 1665) was one of the first persons of African ancestry in the North American colonies to sue for freedom from slavery and win.
 Elizabeth Key won her freedom and that of her infant son John Grinstead on July 21, 1656 in the colony of Virginia.
 She sued based on the fact that her father was an Englishman and that she was a baptized Christian.
 Based on these two factors, her English attorney and common-law husband William Grinstead argued successfully that she should be freed.
 The lawsuit in 1655 was one of the earliest "freedom suits" by a person of African ancestry in the English colonies.

Afro-Grenadians are Grenadian people of largely African descent.
 This term is not generally recognized by Grenadian's or indeed Caribbeans.
 They usually refer to themselves simply as Black or possibly Black-Caribbean.
 The term was first coined by an Black American history professor, John Henrik Clarke (1915-1998), in his piece entitled "A Note on Racism in History".
 The term may also refer to a Grenadian of African ancestry.
 Social interpretations of race are mutable rather than deterministic, and neither physical appearance nor ancestry are used straightforwardly to determine whether a person is considered a black Grenadian.
 According 2012 Census, 82% of Grenada's population is Black, 13% is mixed Black and European (Mulatto), and 11% are of east-Indian origins.
 (The Europeans are only a 5% of the population.)
In South Asia, John was adopted as a last name by some people during the British colonial era.
 It could be traced to mixed ancestry or colonial adaptation of the name by the locals.
 In South Asian countries there are mixed ancestry (such as Anglo Indian, Anglo Pakistani or Anglo Burmese) with similar or localized names to John.
