"Living people"

I don't think that she's alive anymore as the article is regarding a person from the 18th century, I don't know which other categories to fill in, but ¿can someone please fix this mistake?

"Racial identity" -- "negress" or not?

Under the heading "Racial identity" it states "In contrast to describing her as a 'negress', implying she was African, the letter classifies the four children she had with Antoine (including Thomas-Alexandre Dumas) as 'mulattos'." There is no "contrast" in that statement; the child of a "negress" and a white person would indeed have been classified as a "mulatto" at the time. Bricology (talk) 21:47, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Death date

The article appropriately problematizes her death date, with good reason to believe it is not the one mentioned without qualification at the intro. I suggest at least a footnote would be appropriate. Ijon (talk) 12:41, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please add info about Marie-Cessette herself

This article tells me a lot about her in relationship to the Dumas family but it doesn't tell me, for example, where she was born. 73.170.203.143 (talk) 06:36, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It is quite possible that, whether born in slavery in Saint Domingue or enslaved as a child, even she herself would not know this. Even if she did, it is also quite possible that neither she or anyone else documented it. {the poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 51.194.81.165 (talk) 17:15, 15 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
