Someone born from Spanish parents outside of Spain, like in New Spain for

Criollo

You will also see it listed sometimes as "espanol ultramarino" literally translated as Spaniard born abroad.

This group, who was actually considered a lower caste than the "peninsulares" or Spaniards born in Spain, was instrumental in the movement for Mexican independence. They resented that they did not have as much privilege as those born in Spain even if they were 100% of European stock.

I just noticed that the Ranchos mailing system stripped the hyperlink from
my original post.
