Thomas Sumter (August 14, 1734 – June 1, 1832) was a soldier in the Virginia militia, planter, brigadier general in the South Carolina militia during the American Revolution, and politician. He was later repeatedly elected to the United States House of Representatives and to the United States Senate, where he served from 1801-1810, when he retired. He was nicknamed the "Carolina Gamecock" for his attack on British soldiers after they burned down his house during the American Revolutionary War and his fierce fighting style.
