Don't be too quick to assume that "Free Man of color" refers to African.I refer you to the Melungeon pages.Any person from an area of the world where tan skin is the norm were often labeled thus.It could include American Indian, Italian, "Porty-gees" or anywhere on the north side of the Mediteranian Sea.Elvis Prestly, Ava Gardner and many famous Americans have Melungeon heritage.
