Paul Trevigne (1825 – 1908) was an American newspaperman and civil rights activist in New Orleans, Louisiana, United States.[1] He worked at L'Union from 1862 until it closed in 1864, and then as part of the New Orleans Tribune, with the publisher of both papers being Louis Charles Roudanez;[1] and the Francophone astronomer, journalist, and abolitionist from Europe, Jean-Charles Houzeau.[2][3]

Early in his career, Trevigne taught at the Catholic Indigent Orphan School. He published Centennial History of the Louisiana Negro in the Louisianian to commemorate the 100th anniversary of American Independence in 1876.[1]
