lackbeard, aka Edward Teach, Thatch or Drummond — depending on the researcher, was born around 1680 in Bristol, a British port town. “Edward Teach” is the most Bcommonly accepted name. Little is known about the budding Blackbeard, but he could read & write, indicating that his family had money. Most pirate researchers believe his father was a privateer & that young Teach followed in his footsteps, launching his privateering “career” in Jamaica.

Privateers worked as legalized pirates, hired by governments during time of war to attack the ships of enemies. Queen Anne of Britain allowed Teach to plunder French & Spanish ships during the War of the Spanish Succession — and to keep stolen goods.

By the time Britain withdrew from the war in 1713, Teach had become quite adept at the art of pillaging & plundering. Like many other privateers, he found himself unemployed with the war’s end. While some went home to do reputable things, Blackbeard joined with other wayward pirates in the Caribbean, roving the seas for bounty.
