George Farragut
Jordi Farragut Mesquida, known in America as George Farragut (born September 29 or September 30, 1755 – June 4, 1817), was a Minorcan-born American naval officer during the American Revolutionary War. He also fought with the Continental infantry in battles in the South. After commanding a Spanish trading ship in the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean, he had joined the South Carolina Navy as a lieutenant when the war broke out. He anglicized his Catalan name (Jordi) to George Farragut when he joined the South Carolina Navy.
==Early life==
Jordi Farragut Mesquida was born to Antoni Farragut and Joana Mesquida in Ciutadella, Minorca (Spain). He first went to sea at the age of 10, and left Minorca as a young man to join the Spanish merchant marines. He commanded a small vessel that traded goods between Veracruz, Mexico, New Orleans (under French and Spanish rule), and ports in the Caribbean, namely Havana, Cuba.
