It is often mentioned in the Creole community that Prince Rogers Nelson, the legendary artist, commonly known as Prince was a Creole but that truth isn’t found in his ancestral ties. He does indeed has ties to Louisiana through both parents but his folks only moved to Louisiana at the turn of the 19th century and they lived in North Louisiana where it wasn’t a heavy influence of Latin Culture hence the names of Louisiana Cities on opposite sides of the Mason Dixon. Prince was born on 7 Jun 1958
