When I was in school, it meant a mix of Spanish and French. Then somewhere along the way, it began to include blacks, spanish, and french mixed together.

Why would creole mean Spanish and French. thats a first for me. Spaniards and Frenchman from Europe are very similar look, Latin based languages, too many similarities.

After the battle of san domingo in the early 19th century.... All the french and hatians that had already been intermingling were considered "creole" already when they landed in the city and da parish/9th ward

Creole originally referred to people that lived in a place before it was taken by a country and the new people came in. Kind of confusing.
Simply put, people that lived in New Orleans prior to the Louisiana Purchase were creoles.

It has always meant, "of this place," referring to the early generations which were born here.

Mulatto also means a biracial person from African and European ancestry. Mainly French, Spanish, or Portuguese. Many mulattos in Cuba, Dominican Republic, some in Puerto Rico, brazil etc
