I am looking for any info with this.
My ancestor was a Bey of the Ottoman Empire. Amer-Bey or Amir-Bey was the name, later became Ameer-Beg for our family English surname.
He fell in love and married an English Lady who was carrying his child. She went back to England from Turkey. It was a forbidden love as at that time the Turkish and English were against eachother. My ancestor was turned away from the family for the relationship he had with the English Lady.
Later his Father told him to take whatever valubles and leave for England to be with his Wife. The valuables were Jewels and gold.
On the way to england the ship sank taking the Jewels and him with it.
The only thing that was left of him was his unborn child who would be the first Ammer-Beg of England.
If anyone knows of anything that could help discover the proof of the ship going down would be great, and any thing else. It is suspected that the ship was a Spanish Armada Ship.
