AKA Edward Teach
Born: c. 1680

Location of death: Ocracoke Inlet, NC
Cause of death: Justifiable Homicide
Gender: Male
Race or Ethnicity: White

Executive summary: Infamous pirate
English pirate, popularly known as Blackbeard, is believed to have been born at Bristol. He is said to have gone out to the West Indies during the war of the Spanish Succession, to have engaged in privateering, and after the declaration of peace (1713) to have turned pirate, but he is not actually heard of in this capacity until the end of 1716. The following year he captured a large French merchantman, rechristened her "Queen Anne's Revenge", and converted her into a warship of forty guns.
His robberies and outrages in the Spanish main, the West Indies, and on the coasts of Carolina and Virginia, quickly earned him an infamous notoriety. He made his winter quarters in a convenient inlet in North Carolina, the governor of which colony was not above sharing in the proceeds of his crimes, but the governor of Virginia at last dispatched two sloops, manned from the British warships on the station, to cut him out. On the 22nd of November 1718 Lieutenant Maynard, commanding the attacking forces, boarded Teach's sloop, after a sharp fight, and himself shot the pirate dead.
Teach seems to have been an ignorant ruffian. His personal appearance was remarkable. His nickname was due to his habit of tying up the ends of his long and bushy black beard with ribbon and curling them back over his ears. Johnson in his General History of the Pyrates gives his name as Teach, but according to the official records it was really Thatch or Thach.
Pardoned by North Carolina Governor Charles Eden (1717)

Generally speaking piratic, means a person of poor character often times a thief or outlaw, and quaff in it's barest sense mean to consume alcohol. With that knowledge an educated guess would be stolen alcohol, or possibly a term for rum.
What did pirates do to dead pirates?
Generally pirates had a certain loyalty to their captain, and if a captain or fellow sailor were killed, most were buried at sea. Few were buried ashore, although some Caribbean islands purportedly have gravestones. Mutineers or scoundrels were often hung or simply thrown overboard.
