There was a unionist governor of South Carolina, who appears to have had a congenital melanin deficiency.

Then there is the late Benjamin F. Perry, the first black railway mail clerk, born in Missouri, lived in Wabasha and Minneapolis, MN, with his wife Caroline and their seven children all boys including Nelson Perry, the African American communist, who wrote three books about his life and experience. The oldest son Benjamin F. Peery Jr. is an accomplished black astronomer who is Professor Emeritus at Howard University. One of the sons Richard is a retired editor for the Cleveland Plain Dealer Newspaper.
