mustee

The offspring of a white man and black woman is a mulatto; the mulatto, and black produce a sambo; from the mulatto and white comes the quadroon; from the quadroon and white the mustee; the child of a mustee by a white man is called a mustee - fino; and the children of a musteefinio are free by law, and rank as white persons to all intents and purposes.

Strictly speaking, the child of one black and one white parent is a mulatto; the child of a mulatto and a white is a quadroon (one quarter black); the child of a quadroon and a white is a mustee (one eighth black).

Their mother was dead -- she was white-and my mother, who was a slave mustee, was mother to them as well.
