Alexander Hare
Alexander Hare (1775–1834) was an English merchant, infamous for establishing a harem and trading slaves in his personal state of Maluka, southeast Borneo.〔''De man die vrouwen verzamelde; Een koloniale geschiedenis van de Kokos-eilanden'' by Joop van den Berg (‘s-Gravenhage 1998)〕〔(Maluka? on World Coins forum )〕
The son of a London watchmaker of the same name and his wife Janet,〔(Familysearch )〕 Alexander joined a trading company in Portugal around 1800, moved to Calcutta, and settled as a merchant in Malacca in 1807. Here he met Stamford Raffles, who appointed him Resident of Banjarmasin and Commissioner of the Island of Borneo when Dutch control briefly passed to Britain (1811–16). He acquired 1,400 square miles of land from the sultan and established it as an independent state, Maluka, which issued its own coinage.〔(Duit coin from 1813 )〕〔(Alexander Hare and Maluka (Dutch numismatic blog) )〕 An inquiry carried out by William Boggie, the British Resident in Samarang in 1837, uncovered how he had operated what became known as "the Banjermasin Outrage".〔(English appendix to 1860 article in Dutch )〕 He had to leave when the Dutch returned and he took his harem, and others, first to Batavia until declared undesirable in 1819, and then to South Africa until forced to leave in 1826, whence he went to settle the Cocos (Keeling) Islands. Conflict with John Clunies-Ross led to him leaving the Cocos Islands in 1831, some say for Singapore, others say Batavia, but died in Bencoolen on 2 November 1834.〔Morning Post (London) 20/3/1835〕
Alexander had three brothers: David (b.1777), became a jeweller in Batavia, while John (b.1782) and Joseph (b.1784) 〔(Familysearch )〕 were traders in colonial goods in London. The English censes of 1851 and 1861 show Fatimah, Joseph's niece born in the East Indies, living in his London house: as she appears to have been born in 1837 she was presumably David's daughter.〔(Census via Familysearch )〕 She married James Graham at St Peter's, Pimlico 22 May 1862 and died at London 1874.
Hare's story features in the novel ''The Daughter of the Pangaran'' by David Divine, published in 1963.
