First mulatto-negroid Pope Prevost
(whatever)(08.May.2025) Toronto on the Run
"Robert Francis Prevost was born on September 14, 1955, at Mercy Hospital in Chicago, Illinois, to Mildred (née Martínez) Prevost, a librarian, and Louis Marius Prevost, a United States Navy veteran of World War II and superintendent of Brookwood School District 167 in Glenwood, Illinois.
Pope Leo XIV's father Louis Marius Prevost was of Italian and French descent.
Pope Leo XIV's mother Mildred (née Martínez) Prevost was the daughter of Louisiana Creole Parents, Joseph Martínez from Haiti and Louise Baquié from New Orleans, who were of African, French, and Spanish descent.
Joseph Martínez was of mixed Afro-Haitian descent, and Louise Baquié was a mixed-race Black Creole. [PHOTOS @ SITE]

An ABC article stated:
Both of Leo XIV’s maternal grandparents, Joseph Martinez and Louise Baquié, are described as Black or mulatto in several census documents.
On their 1887 marriage license, Martinez listed his birthplace as Haiti, and birth records show that he was born in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Chris Smothers, professional genealogist for 15 years and historian studying at Simmons University, told ABC News that these were the same territories at the time. Baquié’s birth records show she was born in New Orleans.
…On the 1900 census, while his family lived in New Orleans, both Leo XIV’s maternal grandparents and his aunts — Irma and Margaret — were identified as Black. However, in 1920, after the family migrated to Chicago and had the pope’s mother Mildred, that decade’s census reflected their race as white."
