Sir Francis Drake, vice admiral (c.1540– 27 January 1596) was an English sea captain, privateer, navigator, slaver, and politician of the Elizabethan era. Drake carried out the second circumnavigation of the world in a single expedition, from 1577 to 1580, and was the first to complete the voyage as captain while leading the expedition throughout the entire circumnavigation. With his incursion into the Pacific he inaugurated an era privateering and piracy in the western coast of the Americas –an area that had previously been free of piracy.
His exploits made him a hero to the English but a pirate to the Spaniards to whom he was known as El Draque. King Philip II was said to have offered a reward of 20,000ducats, about £4million (US$6.5m) by modern standards, for his life.
Francis Drake (January 1696 – 16 March 1771) was an English antiquary and surgeon, best known as the author of an influential history of York, which he entitled Eboracum after the Roman name for the city.
Early life
Drake was born in Pontefract, where his father, Reverend Francis Drake, was vicar, and was baptised there on 22 January 1696. While still an adolescent, he was apprenticed to a York surgeon called Christopher Birbeck. Birbeck died in 1717, and, at the age of 21, Drake took over the practice. Ten years later he was appointed to the prestigious office of city surgeon of York.
Marriage
In 1720, in York Minster, Drake married Mary Woodyeare, daughter of a former secretary to Sir William Temple. There were five sons, only two of whom survived childhood. Mary Drake died in 1728 at the age of 35 and was buried in the church of St Michael le Belfrey, where there is a wall monument to her.
Eboracum
Drake had always been interested in history and had inherited a number of historical manuscripts. In 1729, he contacted Thomas Hearne, asking for help in compiling a history of York, but to no avail. His half-sister's husband, however, who was a schoolmaster in Leeds, encouraged him, and, with the aid of a number of other historians and collectors, he started work. Acknowledged as giving Drake assistance with Eboracum were: John Anstis, Brian Fairfax, Roger Gale, George Holmes, Henry Keepe, Benjamin Langwith, and Browne Willis.
Lost Treasure is a board game published in 1982 by Parker Brothers. Billed as an electronic deep-sea diving game, Lost Treasure centers on the search for sunken treasure chests full of gold and silver.
The Lost Treasure board is designed to emulate a nautical chart of the islands spanning two bodies of water: Temptation Bay and the Sea of Opportunity. Within each archipelago, there are two ports where found treasure can be sold for cash.
A 24x24 grid is superimposed onto the board. The grid is organized into 64 sectors which measure 9x9.
Francis Drake (1764–1821), of Yardbury and Wells, was a British diplomat, holding positions at Genoa and Munich during the Napoleonic Wars.
Francis Drake was the son of Rev. Francis Drake, Vicar of Seaton and Beer. In 1790 Drake was appointed Secretary of Legation to the Court of Copenhagen., moving on to be Minister Resident at Venice before becoming envoy to Genoa in 1793. He took leave to return from Genoa to England to marry in 1795. In 1799 he was appointed Envoy Extraordinary to the Elector Palatine, and Minister to the Diet of Ratisbon. He kept up correspondence with French informants, and in 1804 was politically embarrassed when some letters, revealing the plans of Charles Pichegru and Georges Cadoudal to mount an uprising on the left bank of the Rhine, were intercepted by the French government and circulated to foreign ministers in Paris.

Sir Francis Drake's attacks on Spanish ships, towns, and ports in the Caribbean, the Pacific, and on Iberia itself frustrated and terrorised Spanish governors, admirals, King Phillip II himself and even the Pope in Rome. He robbed the Spanish gold and silver from the jungles of Panama, seized laden treasure ships from the Azores to the Pacific and helped save England from the terrifying Spanish Armada.
The first captain to successfully circumnavigate the globe, he was without doubt the finest navigator, most accomplished explorer, and wealthiest pirate of his age. But who was this man really? What caused him to sail around the world and spend a lifetime seeking fame and fortune at sea? And why was he so motivated to wage an endless personal war against the entire Spanish Empire?
This is the incredible story of England’s greatest hero, Sir Francis Drake.

Every British schoolchild knows that Francis Drake circumnavigated the globe on the Golden Hind. Drake, a clever and fearless sailor in the new era of colonialism, was employed by the English aristocracy to amass great wealth through plunder and the slave trade. He was regarded by the English as a brave hero of the Elizabethan era who outwitted the fearsome Spaniards. But to the Spanish, Drake was a pirate who was so feared that they called him "The Dragon."

Sir Francis Drake, vice admiral (c.1540– 27 January 1596) was an English sea captain, privateer, navigator, slaver, and politician of the Elizabethan era. Drake carried out the second circumnavigation of the world in a single expedition, from 1577 to 1580, and was the first to complete the voyage as captain while leading the expedition throughout the entire circumnavigation. With his incursion into the Pacific he inaugurated an era privateering and piracy in the western coast of the Americas –an area that had previously been free of piracy.
His exploits made him a hero to the English but a pirate to the Spaniards to whom he was known as El Draque. King Philip II was said to have offered a reward of 20,000ducats, about £4million (US$6.5m) by modern standards, for his life.
Have you forgotten, how it feels to be loved? Do you remember, how it feels to be desired? Have you ever felt, a tender embrace? Has love ever driven you deeply insane? Why have you turned your back on me? I cry out my pain. Why don't you hear? Have you felt the sorrow, of losing someone dear? Can you imagine the feeling of a lost will to live? Why have you turned your back on me? I cry out my pain. Why don't you hear? Why canst thou not, forgive and forget? Why canst thou not, show mercy on me?
