From Wikipedia
Louis-Benoît Zamor (c. 1762 – 7 February 1820) was a Bengali-born slave and revolutionary who spent most of his life in France. Born in Chittagong, Bengal in c. 1762, he was captured and sold into slavery and brought to France, possibly by a British sea captain. He became a servant of Madame du Barry, though after the French Revolution began in 1789 Zamor became a fervent supporter of the revolution and supplied information which led to du Barry's execution in 1793. Zamor disappears from historical records until 1815, when he was recorded as working as a teacher in Paris until his death in 1820.
