  • James DeWolf, né la 18 mars 1764 et mort le 21 décembre 1837, était un marchand d'esclave, corsaire au cours de la guerre de 1812, et une personnalité politique nationale des États-Unis d'Amérique. Il a acquis une certaine notoriété en 1791, alors qu'il était inculpé pour le meurtre, à bord de son navire, d'un esclave soupçonné d'avoir la variole ; sa défense était qu'il menaçait la vie de tous les autres esclaves et de l'équipage en raison de sa maladie. L'affaire a finalement été rejetée et considérée comme légitime en vertu de la loi contemporaine. Au cours de sa vie, son nom était généralement écrit "James D'Wolf". (fr)
