George Raynor (pirate)

[2] He put in at Adam Baldridge’s pirate trading post near Madagascar in late 1691 after capturing a Moorish ship, along with William Cotter.

[3] He and his crew may have captured one last ship before ending their voyage, taking a vessel belonging to Carolina plantation owner Jonathan Amory.

Eventually making his way back to New York City around 1700, possibly with William Mayes, Raynor was suspected of piracy and had to petition a friend to intercede with Governor Benjamin Fletcher to release his treasure chest.

[12] Davis took the Batchelor’s Delight back around Cape Horn, eventually returning to the West Indies in 1688 and Philadelphia by that May.

There they sailed with Robert Culliford for a time before returning to America alongside William Kidd; soon afterwards they were arrested, transported to London for trial, and executed.

They sailed to the Indian Ocean and took prizes, during which the ship was called Bachelor's Delight; James Kelley may have been captain for part of this period.
