Hi George I saw mention of it on another list, but don't recall there being any conclusive evidence to link the Pirate with your direct TREVASKISS line - just a suggestion that he may have lived in Liverpool at some time? Your TREVASKISS's are of course in my own extended family tree by virtue of the marriage in 1866 (in Liverpool St Peter) of John TREVASKISS (b1844 Liverpool) and Caroline TURTLE (b1847 Liverpool). In 1913 (in Prescot) Caroline's 1st cousin once removed George Edwin TURTLE (b1887 Tranmere) married Elizabeth LACEY (b1884 Sutton St Helens). Elizabeth LACEY's grandmother was Elizabeth EVANS (b1843 Liscard), who is my 1st cousin three times removed.
