Hi,

I am the author of the book Galleons and sunken treasure.

In my book there is a link story with the pirate Swan (galleon San Roque shipwreck occurred in 1605 and the treasure island).

I am interested to know why Swan Island (Isla del Cisne, Honduras) has the name of the pirate. I searched for information but there is no apparent explanation.

Curiously, this island was renamed in 1686, just when a pirate Swan traveled through the Caribbean.

I can give further details.

Cheers Claudio
