Is Arabella Drumand a real pirate?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Arabella Drummond appears in listings of pirates from Blackbeard's time period. Some stories have her as a lost lover of Blackbeard, sailing the seven seas in search of him. Others say that she was the first, and regrettably last, female pirate captain of an all male crew. There is strong evidence towards her being captain of an all male crew. I, personally , believe that she was a strong, indapendent woman, more than capable of commanding a crew consisting of males.

If you mean the notorious pirate, Blackbeard (born as Edward Teach, c. 1680 - November 22, 1718), was a very bad pirate who killed people, marooned people on islands, and stole what he could. So he was very bad.

He attacked a French slave ship called La Concorde of Saint-Malo, killed several of the crew, forced the captain to surrender, disembarded the ship, emptied the cargo, renamed it to Queen Anne's Revenge, and mounted 40 guns on her. Then in November of 1717, he attacked the Great Allen in quite a lengthy engagement. It was a well-armed ship, but no match for him. He forced it to surrender, disembarked it, emptied its holds, burned it, and sank it. Then in December, he stopped the merchant sloop Margaret, took the crew and captain hostage for 8 hours as his crew ransacked the ship, then returned the crew and captain unharmed.

Eventually, there was a bounty on him and he was captured and killed in the process on November 22, 1718 at age 38.

Why did Edward Teach become a pirate?

Asked by Wiki User

In 1716, Teach became a pirate when he met the well-known pirate, Benjamin Hornigold, at New Providence. Hornigold took Teach on as an apprentice and he proved to be a quick study. Sometime in early 1717, Hornigold gave Teach his own command of a sloop and together the two pirates wrecked havoc in the following months. Later, off the island of St. Vincent, the two sloops closed in on a merchant ship and captured it. The ship was a large Dutch-built French guineaman called The Concord, which Teach decided he liked. Hornigold allowed him to claim this prize ship as Teach's new command, and he continued his life of piracy from there.

What nationaloty was Blackbeard?

Asked by Wiki User

Edward Teach ("Blackbeard") was a notorious and highly feared English pirate of the Caribbean Sea and western Atlantic during the early 18th century, (the period referred to as the Golden Age of Piracy). His best known ship was the Queen Anne's Revenge, which is believed to have run aground off the coast of North Carolina in 1718.

Blackbeard was over six feet tall and often fought wearing a large feathered tricorn hat, and with multiple swords, knives, and pistols on his person. He wore his long black beard in thick dreadlocks and placed burning pieces of hemp into his ears or beneath the brim of his hat in order to intimidate his enemies with his devil-like looks. His pirate flag was a skeleton in a tricorn stabbing a sword into a bleeding heart. Blackbeard is often regarded as the archetypal image of the seafaring pirate.
