I know I could look it up - but I'm sure I'll get some proper answers here (wishful thinking), I've seen both terms Redbone and Yellowbone. What's the difference and why are they called that?

Most people use it inter-changibly. However, its supposed to be based on the under-tone of the skin. Some light skinned people have a reddish undertone to their skin, ie 'redbone'. Those without = yellowboneQuote:

Hmm..doubt my Great Grands would be amused.
Side note: Try calling an Italian man, "white" or someone from China, Japanese and see how quick he corrects you. Brits aren't Australians and Scot's aren't to be confused with Irish. So this logic is flawed and stupid?
