A definition of Creole from the earliest history in New Orleans (circa 1718) is "a child born in the colony as opposed to France or Spain. (see Criollo)" The definition became more codified after the United States took control of the city and Louisiana in 1803. The Creoles at that time included the Spanish ruling class, who ruled from the mid-1700s until the early 1800s. French language and social customs were paramount even under Spanish rule. White or French Creoles (both of French and Spanish descent) were Roman Catholics. Whites of French/Spanish mixture identified themselves as French Creoles.
