George Washington Dupee (July 24, 1826 – 1897) was a former slave who became a Baptist leader in Kentucky, United States.

After Taylor moved to Illinois, Dupee became a hired slave, working in a rope and bagging factory, and in a brickyard.

In 1841 while he was working on the courthouse in Versailles he came under the influence of Father David Woods, a Baptist preacher, and he was converted in August 1842.

[2] Dupee began attending meetings at the house of a white deacon, and was encouraged to improve his reading and writing and to become a preacher by Sister Phoebe Fields, a black woman.
