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.
