Шаблон:Short description

Harry Lott was an African American Republican politician in Louisiana during Reconstruction. He was elected to the Louisiana House of Representatives, representing Rapides Parish, 1868 and 1870.[1][2]

Lott accused the registrar of Rapides Parish of refusing and omitting a large number of African Americans from the voter rolls.[3]

Joseph B. Lott also represented Rapides Parish in the House. He and Harry Lott were among the "colored" legislators who appealed to U.S. president Ulysses S. Grant to intervene in a dispute with governor Henry C. Warmoth.[4]

He later worked as a night inspector at the United States Custom House.[5]

His sister was allegedly a "Voudou queen".[6]
