Caesar (enslaved man)
Caesar (c. 1737 (supposedly) – 1852) was a slave who is notable for possibly being the earliest-born person ever photographed while alive, when his daguerreotype was taken in 1851. He was also the last slave to be manumitted in New York. Within his lifetime, Caesar had outlived at least three generations of masters on the Nicoll estate in Bethlehem.
