Noun

samboe (plural samboes)

  1. (obsolete) A person who is 3/4 black.
    • 1833 Frederic William Naylor Bayley Four Years' Residence in the West Indies p. 493
      "A samboe," says he, "is the nearest remove from black, being the child of a mulatto father and a negro woman, or vice versa; a mulatto is the offspring of a white man by a negress;" .. Among all these names, hard to pronounce and harder to remember, the samboe or mongrel, as it is oftener called, the mulatto and the mustee, are the only distinctions between the black and white that really pass current, though more have been defined;
