One helluva story of a yard man in HMS

Highlights
Captured 315 enemy ships in two years, averaged three per week, can you imagine this guy as a Jamaican forward.

Captured 3000 POWs in a few years
Promoted to master and commander of English man of war by admiral Rodney, yeah the one in Spanish town, I guess now Rodney has serious relevance as the first English man to promote a black/brown Jamaican to a master commander position, even though the powers that be revoked it later.
Jack punch supplied Haitian revolution with guns

And much more.

I have never heard about this guy before, just ran across him n some research.

"There is no record of a wife and the records concerning his estate have disappeared. One article makes mention that during his life Perkins managed to father over one hundred illegitimate children[2]although no records of them exist."

Is this why they believe he is Jamaican?

And here beganneth our love for guns and violence!
