Looks like the definition has changed over the years and meant a little something different to different regions and the transformation of the definition happened at different paces in seperate geographical locations and at different time periods.... So I wouldn't call anyone "wrong", except for the idiots in the thread that were just firing from the hip and may have had no clue and thought creole was just a way of cooking.
Something like this isn't something where you get the best answer of a definition from a Webster dictionary.

This. My Mom's side of the family are white creoles. Her family has been planted here from the late 1700's. And yes, they have black creoles living around me that live on the Island side of the river. Pointe Coupee has a rich history when it comes to creoles. Kind of funny hearing a black person speak creole french.
