I've lived in North Carolina a long time. Nearly every house in existence from Blackbeard's time in the coastal areas has some fantastical Blackbeard story, including secret passages, wives hung from trees, blah blah blah. Legend says Blackbeard's headless body was thrown in the water and swam around the boat 7 times before sinking into the depths. Descendants of Blackbeard's crew still live in Ocracoke. There is an entire street of Howards in Ocracoke Village, all related to Blackbeard's quartermaster William Howard. So in a way the golden age lives on.

I grew up in nags head NC I dated a Howard girl she was definitely a pirate. And I’ve never been to any houses that old like from the time of black beard but I used to love eating at the Jolly Roger restaurant in kill devil hills and apparently the woman on the Jolly Roger commercials was directly related to black beard and she owned it too. She was also very piratesk

I wonder if in 100 or 200 years people romanticize al kaida like they romanticize the vikings or pirates who terrorized innocents of their time.

@MrArthoz 22 күн бұрын

Yes they will. There is a cult of assassins during the times of Saladin that was later destroyed by the Mongols. They were fanatical killers that made modern day terrorist amateurs. They were very successful and feared that it took a full Mongol invasion to take out the chain of mountain strongholds. Today we have the Assassin's Creed franchise.

@michaelbatarick9617 21 күн бұрын

Yeah, they'll probably romanticize about the liberal terrorists

@josephmorley7965 21 күн бұрын

What is Romantic? It's something reminiscent of Rome (ancient Rome). What was ancient Rome? It was the pinnacle of human engineering and government as well as the world's super power with outposts in every far flung corner of the empire ready to stamp out revolt. Today, groups like Al Qaeda, Isis etc. are a direct response to today's superpower with over 800 military installations globally ready to crush any opposition and harass on the seas, on land, in the air and through the web. The United States of Gangsterism will likely be the bad guys people like to study in a couple hundred years as the decline of this empire has already begun.

The Queen Anns Revenge was just another tall tail like many others you heard around Beaufort until the ship was actually found off the inlet in the 1990's. Markings on the Queen Anns Revenge wreckage measuring the depth of buoyancy was found to be in units used by the French at that time which confirmed it was once a French ship as it was a French slave ship in its previous life. Forensic evidence seemed to dispute accounts Blackbeard purposely scuttled his ship and abandoned his crew as the canons were found moved to the stern of the ship in an attempt to float the bow. Captured crew were a bitter and vengeful lot before they were hung in Williamsburg VA.

When did Americans ever NOT want to claim ownership of anything they had no part in? Bristol was a hotbed for pirates in the 18th century but yes, that doesn't in itself prove anything. However, there has to be a reason he named his ship Queen Anne's Revenge.

@gayusschwulius8490 21 күн бұрын

Not that I disagree with your comment in principle, but the name could very well be explained by the fact that he had been employed by the English crown as a privateer when Anne was Queen. Remember, the colonies *were* part of Great Britain at the time and all of their citizens were subjects of the English crown.

Given Dynamite wasn't invented till 1866, way in excess of 100 years after Blackbeard's demise, there was obviously some hollywood descriptive licence involved in describing Blackbeards appearance.
