Haiti wasn't a country then, so no, they weren't Haitian.

  I recommend reading up on the history of Haiti. Independence was declared first (by the upper classes) and the 1804 massacre came later. There were, of course, a number of slave revolts that happened throughout that time, but the genocide was in 1804.

    November 1803 to 1804 doesn't make much of a difference there. They were still french when they were extracting massive profits from the slaves.
