Alfred Restieaux (1832–1911) was born in Paris, France,[1] and came from a family of French descent. His grandfather was a French nobleman who escaped the guillotine during the French Revolution.[1] At the age of 16 he migrated to Australia and later he travelled to South America and North America. He later became an island trader in the central Pacific.[2] From 1867 to 1872 he had dealings with Ben Pease and Bully Hayes, two of the more notorious captains of ships and blackbirders that operated in the Pacific at that time.[3]
