Joseph Davilmar Théodore (1847 1917) was President of Haïti from November 7, 1914 to February 22, 1915. Born in the town of Ennery in the northern half of the country, he began his career in the military, and organized the cacao farmers of the north in the revolt against President Oreste Zamor. His inability to pay the farmers as he had promised for participating in the rebellion soon led to his resignation in favor of J. Vilbrun Guillaume Sam.
