Check the lower right corner- only a little visible and appears to be "Capt" somethning next to a wreck symbol. The map is from the 1770's, so earlier than the ten sail incident. Any ideas? Enjoy!

That may be where Henry Taylor was diving when he and his crew were arrested. He told me it was a treasure wreck and was mad as hell.

Thanks Aquanut! I thought it was interesting, I hadn't seen it on other maps of that area- glad I shared.

I had to research the story. The events revolved around Little and Brac, they never made it to Grand.

That is most likely the Cumberland, it went down in 1767. Troop ship traveling from Jamaica to Pensacola.
