Redbone is a term used to describe certain racially mixed ethnic groups in the the Sabine River region of Louisiana and Texas. The term is often applied to African Americans with light skin. A related term is "Yellowbone." A Redbone was someone considered "so light that you can see the red blood flowing though their bones."

"Redbone" was not a polite term and was sometimes used as an epithet. However, some who have identified with this group have embraced the name. They have established family surname, genetic, and historical websites to collect and trace their common heritage. Locally, and especially in the 20th Century, Redbones had a reputation for being clannish, staunchly independent, and fierce in war.

The Hill Brothers Official State Map of Louisiana shows, in a side map titled "French Louisiana and Cultural Enclaves of Louisiana," two pink-colored areas marked "Endogamous Community." This ambiguous classification is thought to refer to historical Redbone areas in Louisiana. The larger of the two areas extends across the Sabine River into Orange County, Texas and takes in the east bank towns of Vinton, Louisiana and Starks, Louisiana, both in Calcasieu Parish. The other such area corresponds roughly to the community of Singer, Louisiana and environs in Beauregard Parish. The town of DeQuincy, Louisiana, which is near Starks and Singer but larger than both combined, is also often associated with Redbones, especially in the 20th Century.

The Melungeons of Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina were long thought to be connected to the Sabine River-area Redbones. Both areas are associated with certain common surnames and families that typically have members with dark complexions and straight or wavy blue-black hair. Traditionally, these families were English speakers of Protestant Christian religious denominations. Nicknames were associated with them to account for their appearance. In some locations they were called Indians or Portuguese. They were thought to have both, or all, white and Native American and/or African ancestry.

The Melungeon DNA Project, coordinated by descendant Jack Goins, has so far shown primarily European and African ancestry for the Redbones. This confirms extensive research by late 20th Century scholars, who used early colonial records to determine the origins of free African Americans in Virginia. While Redbones were descendants of freed slaves, most were descendants of unions between white English women (indentured servants or free) and African-American men (servant, slave or free).[sup][1][/sup]

Despite Jim Crow laws, segregation in Louisiana, and social discrimination, the Redbones were not classified in 20th Century censuses as "Negro" or "Indian." Their children attended white schools. Today most Redbones identify as Creole.[sup][citation needed][/sup]

Word. I only started the thread to convince my yellowboned girl to braid her damn hair for me

Dude's getting mad at the adjectives and ignoring the point of the thread. Lightskinned women are beautiful. No, I didn't say"Lightskinned women are beautiful...and better than darksinned women".

Cats are so quick to take offense at nothing.... hollering racism and what not...
