- ―Edward Thatch to Edward Kenway.[src]
Edward Thatch (c. 1680 – 1718), also known as Edward Teach, or by the alias Blackbeard, was an infamous English pirate captain who sailed the West Indies and the American Colonies during the early 18th century, aboard the ship Queen Anne's Revenge, and a contemporary and associate of Edward Kenway.
Biography
Following the fall of the pirate republic of Nassau, Thatch felt his pirating days were over, and retired to North Carolina. He was soon tracked down to a local beach by former associates Edward Kenway and Charles Vane, who both failed to convince him to return to the West Indies.
Later that evening, English pirate hunters stormed his beach with a Man O' War. Thatch and Kenway boarded the monstrous vessel from Kenway's Jackdaw, but despite their best efforts, Thatch was slain after a prolonged and bloody battle, though Kenway and Vane were able to escape.[1]
