When people were more bigoted about race there were dozens of terms for biracial people - often discriminating between different racial mixtures (and even among different degrees of interbreeding).

A good dictionary will offer you historical definitions of mulatto, octoroon, half-caste, mongrel, cross-breed, munt, and many more.
