All About Olaudah Equiano

We've learnt an awful lot about Olaudah Equianao, a famous writer and abolitionist, in Year 5 this term.  
Olaudah Equiano, c.1789
Rather than asking you questions about his life, we'd like you to write your own quiz and post it in the comments for others to try and complete! 

For instance,  my quiz would start:

1) Where was Olaudah Equiano born?
2) Where did Equiano live when he was enslaved with a widow?
3) How old was Equiano when he came over to London?

To answer a quiz, simply respond to the comment with your answers! Remember to make it clear which answer corresponds with which question! EG:

1) Benin
