Biographical synthesis

Thomas Keyes (b. ca. ?; d. ?). Mariner.

Quartermaster's mate of the ship the Advantage friggott.

Resident in 1653 in Deptford in the county of Kent.

Evidence from High Court of Admiralty

Forty-eight year old Thomas Keyes deposed on October 3rd 1653 in the High Court of Admiralty.[1] He was examined on an allegation in the case of "The Keeper of the Liberty etcetera against the Golden Starr".[2]

Thomas Keyes stated that he was on the ship the Advantage frigott in the immediate service of the English Commonwealth on February 23rd 1653, when they spied a ship on a direct course for Holland in the English channel. The ship later proved to be the Morning Starr (also called the Golden Starr) (Commander: Michael van Lupkin). A "sharpe fight" took place between the Advantage frigott and the Golden Starr, in which another frigate, the Waterhound (Commander: Captaine Mill) was also involved.[3]
