[QUOTE="MegsyB007, post: 453102, member: 13534"] Black Jack Anderson - infamously Australia's first pirate. "Anderson was a violent African American who came to Australia in 1826. He and his crew of pirates were based on Middle Island in the Recherche Archipelago just off the coast of Esperance, where they attacked and looted passing boats and ships. They also murdered local Aboriginal men and enslaved their women." Sounds like a charming guy.... Not! [/QUOTE]
