Long John Silver's parrot who was named after a dead pirate who had a buried treasure worth finding! Perhaps it is hidden on Oak Island... Captain Flint, the pirate, finds a place in several novels but his first appearance is in the passages of "Treasure Island".

Captain J. Flint: A pirate who was captain of a ship called the Walrus, and who is dead before the events of the novel begin. In life he was the leader of the pirates and they refer to him often. He was the original possessor of the treasure, and buried it on the island. Long John Silver's parrot is named after him.
