Samuel Bellamy (c. 23 February 1689 – 26 April 1717), also known as Black Sam, was an English pirate and Assassin who operated in the early 18th century. He was also an associate of fellow pirates Alonzo Batilla and Olivier Levasseur.
In February 1717, Bellamy was sent by his Order to intercept the slave ship Whydah, captained by the Dutch slaver Laurens Prins, with the aim of aquiring a mysterious Piece of Eden known as the "Fragment". Bellamy attacked the Whydah along with Batilla and Levasseur, taking the artifact for the Assassins and the ship for himself. Afterwards, Bellamy and his crew converted the Whydah from a ten-gun galley to a twenty-eight gun galley.[1]
Using the Whydah, Bellamy subsequently plundered several ships near Virginia. Along with Bellamy's other ships, the Whydah then attempted to reach Block Island, off the coast of Rhode Island. With the weather worsening, the ships soon lost contact with each other. On 26 April 1717, while near Cape Cod, the Whydah was hit by a storm.[1]
It was at this time that the Templars attacked, believing that Bellamy still held the Fragment of Eden - however, he had passed it into Batilla's care shortly after taking the ship. In the cover of the storm, the Templars destroyed the Whydah and killed Bellamy and the entirety of his crew.[2]
