WILLIAM McCOY - A.B.
He was 5'6" tall, fair complexion, light brown hair with a heavy beard,
strong-made, a scar where he had been stabbed in the belly, and a small
scar under his chin. He was heavily tattooed all over his body.
McCoy was one of the last crewmen to sign on the Bounty. He and
his friend, Quintal, enlisted together, and that may well have been a
black day for the future of the ship

MATTHEW QUINTAL

His mother died when he was young, and he lived with an uncle for two
years.
After two years at Plymouth with his father, he shipped aboard the
sloop-of-war, 'Nymphas' as servant to his uncle, a gunner.
After his uncle's death, he was appointed servant to the Captain of a
man-o-war, serving three years.
There is no question that he was one of the most violent crewmembers
and Pitcairn residents.

EDWARD YOUNG (Ned)

He is said to have been a nephew of Sir George Young, but the official
records of the Young family do not support this.
Because of his involvement in the mutiny, however, he could have been
disowned by the family, and 'purged' from the family records.

JOHN MILLS

He had a scar on his right armpit due to an abcess. His early
history suggests a sadistic bully-boy.
On the 'Mediator', he was known to send midshipmen on fools' errands in
order to steal their food.
