notes:
George Anson, first baron Anson, a commodore in the British Royal Navy, set sail on a circumnavigation in 1740. Anson's orders were to raid Spanish possessions along the South American coast and to disrupt their trade. When his squadron of six warships reached Isla de Santa Catarina (Saint Catherine's), a large island just off the coast of Portuguese southern Brazil, on December 21, 1740, many aboard were sick. They rested on the island for one month.
