Edward Teach, the notorious pirate known as Blackbeard was born in Spanish Town 'of very creditable parents.' He went to sea at age 15 and drifted into piracy. By the turn of the 18th century he was in command of his own vessel. Blackbeard was so called because he had a beard so huge that he twisted it into tails and tied it with ribbons. Adding to his ferocious appearance, he also stick fuses under his hat and light them as he battle. It was said that he is supposed to have had 14 wives.
