Best Answer

They were called mulattos, but that designation was for one black and one white parent. There were various terms for the percentage of slave blood, such as "quadroon" for a person with one quarter African ancestry, and these terms were used to describe people with differing percentages of 'slave' blood.

That is exactly right.
