Thomas-Alexandre Dumas, born Thomas-Alexandre Davy de la Pailleterie (25 March 1762 – 26 February 1806) was a French general during the French Revolution. Born to a French white nobleman and one of his black slaves in Haiti, Thomas-Alexandre was neverless raised in privilege, being brought to France where he received an aristocratic education.
