Jones Beach namesake may have helped notorious pirate, historian finds

مورخ کی تحقیق، جونز بیچ کے نام والے شخص نے بدنام قزاق کی مدد کی ہوگی

इतिहासकार की खोज: जोंस बीच के नाम वाले व्यक्ति ने कुख्यात समुद्री डाकू की मदद की होगी

Jones Beach namesake may have helped notorious pirate, historian finds

Key points

اہم نکات

मुख्य बातें

  • Amateur historian James Bailey says colonial-era documents suggest Thomas Jones, the namesake of New York's Jones Beach, helped the notorious pirate Captain Henry Every and his crew evade capture after their 1695 raid on the treasure ship Ganj-i-Sawai.
  • The documents point to Jones acting as a getaway helper after the pirates took gold and silver worth tens of millions of dollars.
  • Jones later became a wealthy whaling operator on the Long Island barrier beach that now bears his name, and was investigated years later by New York's governor.
  • شوقیہ مورخ جیمز بیلی کا کہنا ہے کہ نوآبادیاتی دور کی دستاویزات سے معلوم ہوتا ہے کہ نیویارک کے جونز بیچ کے نام والے تھامس جونز نے بدنام قزاق کیپٹن ہینری ایوری اور اس کے عملے کو 1695 میں خزانے کے جہاز گنج سوائی پر حملے کے بعد گرفتاری سے بچنے میں مدد کی۔ دستاویزات کے مطابق جونز نے کروڑوں ڈالر کے سونے چاندی کے بعد قزاقوں کے فرار میں مدد کی۔ بعد میں جونز لانگ آئی لینڈ کے اسی ساحلی علاقے میں وہیل کے کاروبار سے امیر آدمی بن گئے جس کا نام اب ان کے نام پر ہے، اور برسوں بعد نیویارک کے گورنر نے ان کی تحقیقات بھی کیں۔ ماہرین کا کہنا ہے کہ یہ نتائج دلچسپ مگر حتمی نہیں ہیں، اور بیلی اپنی تحقیق شائع کرنا چاہتے ہیں۔
  • शौकिया इतिहासकार जेम्स बेली का कहना है कि औपनिवेशिक काल के दस्तावेज़ों से पता चलता है कि न्यूयॉर्क के जोंस बीच के नाम वाले थॉमस जोंस ने कुख्यात समुद्री डाकू कैप्टन हेनरी एवरी और उसके दल को 1695 में खज़ाने के जहाज़ गंज-ए-सवाई पर हमले के बाद पकड़े जाने से बचने में मदद की। दस्तावेज़ों के अनुसार जोंस ने करोड़ों डॉलर के सोने-चांदी के बाद डाकुओं के भागने में मदद की। बाद में जोंस लॉन्ग आइलैंड के उसी तटीय इलाके में व्हेल कारोबार से धनी व्यक्ति बन गए, जिसका नाम अब उनके नाम पर है, और वर्षों बाद न्यूयॉर्क के गवर्नर ने उनकी जाँच भी की। विशेषज्ञों का कहना है कि ये निष्कर्ष दिलचस्प हैं, पर अंतिम नहीं, और बेली अपना शोध प्रकाशित करना चाहते हैं।

Amateur historian James Bailey says colonial-era documents suggest Thomas Jones, the namesake of New York's Jones Beach, helped the notorious pirate Captain Henry Every and his crew evade capture after their 1695 raid on the treasure ship Ganj-i-Sawai. The documents point to Jones acting as a getaway helper after the pirates took gold and silver worth tens of millions of dollars. Jones later became a wealthy whaling operator on the Long Island barrier beach that now bears his name, and was investigated years later by New York's governor. Experts caution the findings are compelling but not conclusive, and Bailey hopes to publish his research.
