We need to discuss Sully Island. It is very important and I think we should have more about it.

I don't know who said that, or when, but I have done my best to expand the article with as much as I can find around the internet 21stCenturyGreenstuff (talk) 17:54, 1 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Pirates - and citations

edit

Struggling a bit to find a citation for the alfredo de marisco - as the articles I find mostly seem based on this wikipedia article - but this article might be good [1]

One stamp shows the ship (or Cogg) of Alfredo de Marisco, a 13th century

pirate who terrorised the trading ships of the Bristol Channel. He is probably related to the de Mariscos of Lundy who lived there around the same time and have the Marisco Tavern named after the family. Alfredo made Sully his base of operations. He operated under the title Nighthawk and had the image

of a hawk’s skull on his ship’s mainsail.
