And remember that Theresa Hicks in her book "South Carolina Indians Indian
Traders and other Ethnic Connections Beginning 1760" that in part of the
1790 census Indians and Blacks were all lumped together as "other free
persons".She states on pg.xiii there's a book "Black Heads of Households in
the SC 1790 Census-she says the "compiler had listed every person who had
been enumerated as "All Other Free Persons" in 1790 as "Black". She knew for
a fact from her "own research that some of these were Indians"
she also states
"In South Carolina, the term "Mulatto" was understood to be "one born of an
Indian mother"....
"in 1773 the term "Mulatto" was still understood to be "half Indian".
""Mustizo" as used in one South Carolina case was confined to "admixtures of
the Indian and Negro races"...  she also states. frances
