Hi Christine,
I have to go back and read this thread again, but by your comment, let me just say that I agree with you. There are a lot if inter-racial relationships in our family. When my ggrandfather came to the U.S his Ollivierre name was changed to Oliver. He described himself on his marriage license as "mixed" but his wife was white! Are you new to ancestry? Have you taken the DNA test? My ggrandfather was Edward Ollivierre, his wife was Minnie Wallace, both from St. Vincent. Gail
