Desert Pyrate Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 Ahoy pirates... I was reading a book today, and read about Capt. MacRae, who fought against Edward England and Taylor. Apparently, he was quite impressive to them, and they allowed him to escape. Later, he became the Governor of Madras, and was worth a veritable fortune. Anyone have any more information? I'm interested because one of my two Scottish clans is MacRae (the other being Galbraith), so I'm always eager t' hear stories o' me clanfolk. Especially ones that have to do with piracy.

DP, I'm not familiar with Capt. MacRae, but if you stick MacRae and Pirate into Google, or MacRae and Madras, or just Captain Macrae, there's a lot of material out there.

Desert Pyrate Posted February 11, 2004 Author Share Posted February 11, 2004 Yeah, I know. But so many times, the crew of this fine pub has got information that hasn't percolated onto the web yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
