Robert Byndloss

[1][2] The brother-in-law of Henry Morgan, Byndloss was sympathetic to pirates, buccaneers, and privateers.

[1] When Morgan lost his ability to issue letters of marque to privateers, Byndloss would direct interested captains to the French governor of Tortuga to receive a letter from him.

Both Morgan and Byndloss received a commission for each such letter issued.

[3][4] Marchena Island in the Galapagos Archipelago was charted by the English pirate William Ambrosia Cowley as "Bindlos's Island" in his honor in 1684,[1] a name it bore for centuries thereafter albeit usually in the modified form "Bindloe Island".

[1] Upon his own death, Morgan left land in St George Parish, Jamaica, to Byndloss's elder son Robert.
