style="white-space:nowrap;"> 1839</span>) was an American <a href="/wiki/Sea_captain" title="Sea captain">sea captain</a>, explorer and trader who made a number of voyages, mainly to the <a href="/wiki/Atlantic" class="mw-redirect" title="Atlantic">Atlantic</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Southern_Ocean" title="Southern Ocean">Southern Ocean</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Pacific_Islands" class="mw-redirect" title="Pacific Islands">Pacific Islands</a>. In a <a href="/wiki/Ghost-written" class="mw-redirect" title="Ghost-written">ghost-written</a> memoir, <i>A Narrative of Four Voyages</i>, which describes his sea-going life between 1823 and 1832, Morrell included numerous claims of discovery and achievement, many of which have been disputed by geographers and historians, and in some cases have been proven false. He ended his career as a fugitive, having wrecked his ship and misappropriated parts of the salvaged cargo. </p><p>Morrell had an eventful early career, running away to sea at the age of 17 and being twice captured and imprisoned by the British during the <a href="/wiki/War_of_1812" title="War of 1812">War of 1812</a>. He subsequently sailed <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/before_the_mast" class="extiw" title="wikt:before the mast">before the mast</a> for several years before being appointed as <a href="/wiki/Chief_mate" title="Chief mate">chief mate</a>, and later as captain, of the New York sealer <i>Wasp</i>. In 1823, he took <i>Wasp</i> for an extended voyage into <a href="/wiki/Subantarctic" title="Subantarctic">subantarctic</a> waters, and on his return made unsubstantiated claims to have travelled beyond 70°S and to have sighted new coastlines in the area now known as the <a href="/wiki/Weddell_Sea" title="Weddell Sea">Weddell Sea</a>. His subsequent voyages mainly centered on the Pacific, where he attempted to develop trading relations with the indigenous populations. Although Morrell wrote of the enormous potential wealth to be obtained from the Pacific trade, his endeavours were, in the main, commercially unprofitable. </p><p>Despite his reputation among his contemporaries for untruth and fantasy, Morrell has been defended by some later commentators who, while questioning his general reliability, maintain that not all his life was fraud and exaggeration. They believe that aside from the bombast and boastful tone of the account that carries his name, there is evidence that he carried out useful work, such as his discovery of large-scale guano deposits which led to the development of a full-scale industry. He is believed to have died in 1838 or 1839, in <a href="/wiki/Portuguese_Mozambique" title="Portuguese Mozambique">Mozambique</a>; there is, however, evidence to suggest that this death might have been staged, and that he lived on in exile, possibly in South America. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Early_life_and_career">Early life and career</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Benjamin_Morrell&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Early life and career"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:South_Shetland_Islands_Map.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7c/South_Shetland_Islands_Map.png/220px-South_Shetland_Islands_Map.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="152" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7c/South_Shetland_Islands_Map.png/330px-South_Shetland_Islands_Map.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7c/South_Shetland_Islands_Map.png/440px-South_Shetland_Islands_Map.png 2x" data-file-width="1103" data-file-height="760" /></a><figcaption>Map of the South Shetland Islands, scene of Morrell's first Antarctic adventures</figcaption></figure> <p>Morrell was born at <a href="/wiki/Rye,_New_York" title="Rye, New York">Rye</a>, in <a href="/wiki/Westchester_County,_New_York" title="Westchester County, New York">Westchester County, New York</a>, on July 5, 1795.<sup id="cite_ref-DAB_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-DAB-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> He grew up in <a href="/wiki/Stonington,_Connecticut" title="Stonington, Connecticut">Stonington, Connecticut</a>, where his father, also named Benjamin, was employed as a shipbuilder.<sup id="cite_ref-DAB_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-DAB-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Morrell, after minimal schooling, ran away to sea at the age of 17 "without taking leave of any member of my family, or intimating my purpose to a single soul".<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> During the <a href="/wiki/War_of_1812" title="War of 1812">War of 1812</a>, which broke out while he was at sea, he was twice captured by the British; on his first voyage, his ship, carrying a cargo of flour, was intercepted off <a href="/wiki/St_John%27s,_Newfoundland" class="mw-redirect" title="St John's, Newfoundland">St John's, Newfoundland</a>, and Morrell was detained for eight months.
