Who was Morgan's close friend and ally?

  • Sir Thomas Modyford

  • Sir Francis Drake

  • Lord Horatio Nelson

  • King Charles II

Answer

Sir Thomas Modyford, Morgan's close friend and ally, played a crucial role in supporting Morgan's ventures in Jamaica. He was a colonial administrator who served as the Governor of Jamaica from 1664 to 1671 and again from 1674 to 1678. Modyford's association with Morgan facilitated Morgan's rise to prominence and provided legitimacy to his activities, such as privateering and buccaneering.
