The Treasure of Captain William Kidd.

hello
In my opinion, every story has a hidden secret inside it that proves its truth, you have to follow this story to discover the facts.
Don't let yourself think that something will hurt you
I have personally made several trips to ancient sites without success.

Hi Persian Warrior,
The story I'm following is only 327 years old. I'm sure ancient facts are a lot harder to find and verify. I believe tenacity is key. You just have to keep researching until you get "Lucky".
 

What EXACTLY Does "Captain Kidds Supposed Treasure" consist of anyways?
If it's supposedly the contents of some moguls ship off the coast of India. Most likely the ship wouldn't of had Gold & Silver on it.
So what's the hullaballoo all about?
:dontknow:
The story as reported doesn't make sense.
 

Hi ISG,
The 'currency' of the era was gold, silver, precious gems. Stuff like that.
Just like Kidd left on Gardiner's Island. ..Only a Lot more of it.

(You might review posts #161, and #188).

Those Trade ships from India were mostly filled with products, not Gold & Silver and Gems.
The "Gold, Silver & Gem ships" of the time were basically comming from South America, not India. So if that ship is the only big one he took, there is no treasure to be found.
😁

Unless that ship was English? With Gold, Silver & Jewels being sent to India for merchandise?
It is said the Captain was English, with French Passes?
Interesting,
The East India Company is mentioned in some Kidd lore.
Possibly a Private Merchant Voyage finnanced by the East India Company.
They were probably just starting to be big with the Establishment of the Bank Of England in 1694?
Does anybody know where Kidd originally set sail from? New York, England, Or the Caribbean, and what port did he return to?
