Alonzo Granville Draper (September 6, 1835 – September 3, 1865) was a volunteer officer in the Union Army during the American Civil War who eventually earned the grade of brevet brigadier general. During his early career, Draper was an outspoken advocate of various social causes, particularly worker's rights. As an officer during the Civil War, Draper was best known as the commander of the 36th United States Colored Troops.〔Reid, 43.〕
==Early career==
Born in Brattleboro, Vermont, Draper eventually moved to Lynn, Massachusetts. He was known as an eloquent speaker and became a local leader of several social causes including temperance and labor rights.〔Casstevens, 132.〕 In 1859, Draper was elected the first chairman of the Lynn Mechanics Association. In connection with this position, he also became editor of the ''New England Mechanic'', a publication dealing with the rights of industrial laborers. Draper was one of the key leaders of the 1860 Shoemakers Strike in Massachusetts, the first significant movement of its kind.〔 The political popularity he earned as a champion of worker's rights helped him to become assistant city marshal in Lynn.〔
A few years before the Civil War, Draper married Sarah Elizabeth Andrews of Boston. They would have six children including one set of twins.〔
