Hello, I am a retired English environmental scientist.

I am interested in naval warfare in the Napoleonic and American war of 1812 and the history of the Scottish Borders.

My ancestor was a Scot. He was captured by privateers and landed in Grand Canary between 1811 and 1813.

I have contributed most of the text of two Wikipedia articles:  John Ordronaux (privateer)  (1778-1841), Privateer, and John Ordronaux (doctor) (1830-1908), his son.
