The British bribed Jamaican pirates to join their army, which also eliminated them as a threat. Every problem has a solution. In the 19th century, the tiny nation of Estonia underwent a widespread famine. The government enacted an emergency law which prohibited people from abandoning their farms in search of greener pastures elsewhere. In effect, this law prevented Estonian men from deserting their own women, who were largely immobilized by their femininity. This was an indirect national security measure, as it conditioned military-age Estonian men to refuse to financial rewards in exchange for unraveling the security of their dependents.

I'm a direct descendant of Captain William Henry Ricketts, the only commander from Cromwell's Jamaican campaign who received a large tract of land on the island (there were 6, I believe) in gratitude for their service, to actually MOVE to Jamaica, live on his land in the Parish of Saint Elizabeth, raise 12 children, & ultimately die of old age there (although possibly "at sea") in 1703. The others were merely absentee landlords of their lucrative sugar cane plantations. He made it his home, & his children did as well.

As an American, I have to say, how sad for you that you have so little exposure to our own culture, and especially its literature. No, the term is not current, but as late as the 30s or even the 40s it was - which is why it occurs so frequently in our literature. But you have to actually be a reader to have become aware of that.

Revitalize the original name for your (future?) son. John is timeless, and Even just makes it that little bit different from the usual modern names.

Always thought it rather a pity that I would see the end of that branch of the family.

Im jamaican and apart of the local myth is that the pirates hid there gold In. Church in the center of town. That was the last straw and GOD got pissed (as he normally does, like seriously what with the big guy constantly loosing his cool). It is said that the church is still intact and all the gold is still there but local scuba divers say that the church became a breeding ground for octopi. So no one can ever get treasure out. Jamaica is beautiful place filled with rich history. I recommend everyone to visit there. Another big part of Jamaican history are mermaids (when I was a child I feel out of a boat and before I lost con I saw something swam to me as I sink. With longvflowing hair and feminine feature. I woke up on a beach about half a mile away from where I was over board. I could of just hallucinated when I was about to lose consciousness and just got washed up unsure but I'm pretty convinced that I was saved by a mermaid.

@@jackdurden466 if you go to ebay and search "port royal pirate" it takes you to some listing of artifacts from there, some rings and few other things. They look real, seems to be a reputable seller. It seems dumb to pay a hundred bucks for an old ugly ring but then if you imagine that maybe Blackbeard was near that ring at one time, maybe touched it, maybe originally stole it, it becomes enticing.

Visited Port Royal 3 years ago. Walked the same wall in Fort Charles where Horatio Nelson would scan the horizon for Spanish sails. The fort is now quite a distance from the shore as the land has built up seaward. There are graveyards containing many British soldiers and sailors which are not tooo high above sea level. Was weird to see crabs scuttling about the graveyard.
