Summary
| Description |
English: In early 1813, the daughter of former Vice President Aaron Burr, Theodosia Burr Alston, went missing at sea. Her confirmed cause of death is unknown, but it is assumed that they were either shipwrecked in a storm, or as in this image, forced to walk the plank by pirates, particularly the crew of Jean Lafitte. |
