A recent history by Giles Milton describes the encounter of these people with a Cornish boy named Thomas Pellow. The town of Baltimore in Ireland was once emptied by one of these people, Jan Janszen, who also served as president of the Republic of Salé. Simon the Dancer was known for becoming one of these people, as was a man called "Birdy," Jack Ward. These people operated warehouses called bagnios where their laborers spent the night.
