Joseph Cooper (pirate)
Joseph Cooper (died 1725) was a pirate active in the Caribbean and the American east coast. He was best known for sailing alongside Francis Spriggs, and for the manner of his death. History Cooper's early life is not known. In 1718 he and six other pirates were tried in Philadelphia for capturing the 22-ton sloop ''Antelope'' in the Delaware River. They were released for lack of evidence. By 1725 Cooper was captain of the sloop ''Night Rambler.'' On November 14 they captured the ''Perry'' near Barbados and a French sloop the next day.
