The Mary Celeste was a brigantine found in the Atlantic Ocean unmanned and under full sail heading towards the Strait of Gibraltar in 1872. The fate of the crew is the subject of much speculation: theories range from alcoholic fumes to underwater earthquakes, and a large body of fictional accounts of the story. The Mary Celeste is often described as the archetypal ghost ship.

In early 1873 two lifeboats ran aground in Spain. One boat contained 1 body and an American flag. The second contained 5 bodies. These 6 bodies were never identified or if they were it was never entered into public records. So we may never know if these people were what was left of the crew and passengers of the Mary Celeste.

Did 'Marie Celeste' disappear in the Bermuda Triangle?

No, Marie Celeste did not disappear in the Bermuda Triangle. The ship in question was the literary creation of Arthur Conan Doyle (May 22, 1859 - July 7, 1930) in 1884 even though his vessel was based upon the real-life event of the abandonment of Mary Celeste in 1872. New York to Genoa, Italy, was the route of Mary Celeste in 1872 whereas Louisiana to Africa, with no disappearances or stops in the Bermuda Triangle, was that of Marie Celeste.

What happened to the people on board 'Marie Celeste'?

One survival is the fate of the people on board Marie Celeste. The ship in question was a figment of the imagination of Arthur Conan Doyle (May 22, 1859 - July 7, 1930) even though the vessel was based upon the very real mystery of the part barkentine part schooner Mary Celeste during November and December of 1872. Dr. Habakuk Jephson was the only survivor -- because of an ear-shaped talisman, given to him by Martha, a Murray Plantation slave, after the Battle of Antietam/Sharpsburg (Wednesday, September 17, 1862) -- of on-board massacres by Africans who diverted Marie Celeste's route from Lisbon, Portugal, to Africa.
