Who was Phillip Babb?
Phillip Babb was of English descent. He landed on the Isles of Shoals in southern Maine around the mid 1600's. He was told to be a Constable of Peace, a magistrate, a Fish Master, and a butcher. Phillip had many children with wife Mary Baylie whom he married in 1661 in the Isles of Shoals. Tales of piracy surround this name. I do believe that the pirate was the son of Phillip and Mary Babb. I did find that Phillip and Mary bore a son named Phillip in 1666. This son may be the pirate Phillip Babb who has been linked to the alias "Pedro the Pirate" in the famous Ocean Born Mary legend. This seems to fit more historically correct if the date of birth were 1720 for Mary. Phillip (the pirate) christened the ocean born baby after his mother "Mary" who had died in 1674 when little Phillip was only 13 years of age. Also Phillip was said to have been Captain William Kidd's first mate. Kidd was falsely accused and hanged for piracy in 1701. After Kidd's death, Phillip is said to have turned to piracy which puts the time frame (early 1700's) more accurate for the first Phillip Babb who arrived in the mid 1600's on the coast of southern Maine to be the father of the pirate Phillip Babb who pillaged and plundered the eastern coast around the early 1700's. In the Ocean born Mary story they describe an old salt (Phillip) moving to a town in New Hampshire to live out his last years. This town in N.H. was not far from his original birthplace in southern Maine. This is my findings after reading and trying to piece together the history of Phillip Babb. Regards, Curtis Babb
