Okay, so his maternal grandmother is supposed to be the English one. Marcus’ mother is Angela Patterson whose mother is Agnes C. Morris. Angela’s father is Simie Lavern Patterson.
Simie’s marriage to Agnes occured on June 2, 1976 in Las Vegas (registered a few days before).

Simie appears in California records, but I’m not sure if he was born there. Nor can I find any confirmation that Agnes C. Morris was born in England.
His grandparents first married in England in 1975.
Okay, so it’s:
father – African American
mother – 1/2 African American, 1/2 English
Correction:
Marcus’ paternal grandparents are/were named Harrison O. Scribner and Kathy Reid.
Marcus’ maternal grandparents are/were named Simie L. Patterson and Agnes C. Morris.
So, which grandmother is the English one? The maternal or paternal?
so is he definitely 75% black?
That’s literally impossible to quantify.
ok thanks
Or put another way, he’s 25% English Therefore he’s one quarter white. And he’s proud of his English heritage too.
