The Treasure of Captain William Kidd.

[Randawg72]

Intersting and strange. I can't find anything on the 2 Frenchmen that were hung wih Kidd?
I have kind of gone away from Principe with my full concentratration on Rhode Island as the best possibity for something of value burried by Kidd or his associates.

Of Kidd's fellow crew-members, Darby Mullins was the only associate hanged with Captain Kidd. Gabriel Loffe, Able Owens, and Hugh Parrot who were also convicted of piracy, were all pardoned just prior to hanging.
I don't know the details of the two condemned Frenchmen.

The first painting was done during Kidd's trial, and is probably the most accurate.
The 'red sash' depiction was painted by John D. Champlin in 1902.

Strange? How can that be?
I bet you they were living in Rhode Island
😁
In 1686, 45 French Calvinist families, or Huguenots, settled in East Greenwich, which is still called Frenchtown. However, the settlement was short-lived due to a land ownership dispute.
🤔
Those 2 Frenchmen may be the key
