John Fenn

John Fenn was born around 1721 in Britain. Being one of Thomas Anstis' subordinates, Fenn was Anstis' gunner prior to the taking of the Morning Star, when he became captain; records report Fenn as being short one hand, and he must have been well respected by the crew as even though the Morning Star was wrecked off the Grand Caymans he was made captain of another ship before being captured on Tobago in the spring of 1723 and then hanged on Antegoa.
