Capn' Barbossa's bio!

   Captain (of course, he wasn’t a captain yet) Gregory Barbossa, was born in London, England in 1712 to Abraham and Jenny Barbossa.

   After a brief life in the family business, ship making, Young 17 year old Barbossa decided to become a sailor. It wasn’t an easy life. He caught a terrible case of Scurvy and almost died from it, when he finally recovered, it left him slightly crazy. The other sailor’s called him, "Scatter brains" all of the time. It made him bitter, and angry towards most people.

   He married Maria Del-a-Tren, and had one child, a boy named Phillippe. But Maria decided he was far too angry for a husband; so she took her son and their belongings, left him and never returned.

   He tried to love, but no one would love him back.

   Barbossa lost most memory of a clean, healthy life and became a drunken, disheveled Pirate.

   After sailing independently for 6 years, he met my father: Jack.

   My father was captain of Black Pearl. Barbossa decided to sail with him.

   After 2 ½ years of sailing with my father, Barbossa had turned all of his crew against him. Mutiny in sued and before long Barbossa stranded Jack on an island and captained the Pearl himself.

   When Jack got off the island, the crew had already done too much damage. They now had a curse. An evil curse. Jack had not wanted this to happen. He knew how to save their lives. But he didn’t find them in time. Most of them died.

   Barbossa saved Jack’s life and turned into a good Pirate. But he still steals a little bit of treasure now and then, just to keep sharp.

    I love him like an uncle and hope he never turns evil again.

With all due respect,
