JEAN PIERRE BOYER (1776-1850), president of the republic of Haiti, a mulatto, was born at Port-au-Prince on the 28th of February 1776.
During his presidency Boyer did much to set the finances and the administration in order, and to encourage the arts and sciences, and in 1825 obtained French recognition of the independence of Haiti, in return for a payment of 150,000 francs.
Boyer was able to carry on his government for some years longer, but in March 1843 a violent insurrection overthrew his power and compelled him to take refuge in Jamaica.

Jean-Jacques Dessalines, a negro, was proclaimed king, but his cruelty and despotism were such that Boyer combined with A.A. Pétion and General Henri Christophe to overthrow him (1806).
Christophe now seized the supreme power, but Pétion set up an independent republic in the southern part of the island, with Boyer as commander-in-chief.
Christophe's efforts to crush this state were defeated by Boyer's gallant defense of Port-au-Prince, and a series of brilliant victories, which, on Pétion's death in 1818, led to Boyer's election as president.
