Hello all....Bell, Belle, Taylor???
So, I was raised thinking my whole family was predominantly black. I just found out recently my great great grandmother on my dad's dad's (lol) side immigrated here from Ireland. Her name was Ora....she had three husband's from what I understand. Well, anyways, she had a daughter (and I'm pretty sure other children) named Alberta. My uncle said she was very beautiful with long hair. Apparently, Ora came over here as an indentured servant and married a black man. So, Alberta is Mulatto; mix if you will. She has a child (Carlton Belle...was Taylor (I think...from research this is what I found) he changed his last name to Bell so he wouldn't have to identify with his real father. He also added the e at the end of Bell). He is also mixed because she had him by a black man. So, the purpose of this thread is to see if anyone may happen to know this family! I know my family after my grandfather but don't know anything before him. The white side of the family is very secretive. I'm not sure if it's because Ora decided she needed some chocolate in her life! Lol....ok, thank you!

I have reported this as being racist offensive.

You may say that afterwards, but it was still taken as offensive, maybe you should chose your enlgish a little bit better in future, it is not amusing referring to black people as chocolate, whether you are blackyourself or not! We have a mixed race family, i am certainly far from racist, but see all the trouble caused by remarks like yours , even if said in jest. We have both had our say now, so please do not expect any further responses. I have a very busy life and do not have time to read such nonsense. Thank You,

Re: Hello all....Bell, Belle, Taylor???
It was taken as offensive only to you!!! I wrote this back in 2013 and you somehow found the time to say my message was racist because I said chocolate. Good Lord! And I'm going to need you to do a spell and grammer check before coming at me for posting something about MY family!! Good day!
