English Captain: Thomas Keysar
Thomas Keysar served in the Commonwealth navy, and possibly before that, in the Parliamentarian navy. From 1649 to 1650, he commanded the Royalist prize Leopard's Whelp (10 guns). In 1651, he commanded the Royalist prize Swan (22 guns). In the sources that I have, his activities are not mentioned, and he is not mentioned as serving after 1651. Sources:
