The Order of Descendants of Pirates and Privateers is a hereditary organization created to honor the memory and deeds of pirate and privateer ancestors.

The adventures and romance of the pirates have enhanced our history and fired our imaginations and 

without the actions of privateers, the United States might not have won the American Revolution, or sustained through the War of 1812.
