487. Buccaneer Henry Morgan

Swashbuckler Captain Morgan (1635–88) was born in Wales. Kidnapped as a child in Bristol, England and shipped to Barbados, he joined the infamous roguish buccaneers, leading many raids against the Spanish and Dutch in the Caribbean and Central America. His most famous exploit was the sacking of Porto Bello (Panama) and the city of Panama in 1671 during the Golden Age of Piracy & Buccaneers (1655-1725), which was a significant factor in the history of the North Atlantic, North American coastline, and the Caribbean.
