MatelotageFrench for "seamanship") was an agreement amongst pairs of European sailors, in particular buccaneers, in the 17th and early 18th century. As part of this economic partnership, "matelots" would agree to share their incomes, and inherit their partner's property in the case of their death. In addition, they would pledge to protect and fight alongside each other in battle and otherwise act in the other's interest.[1] Not limited to sailors or pirates, matelotage agreements could be made by members of any group, even planters.[2]

Though most often interpreted as a platonic form of mutual insurance, some historians have compared matelotage to same-sex marriage or domestic partnership.[3][4] B. R. Burg argued in Sodomy and the Pirate Tradition that in the male-dominated world of piracy, homosexuality was common. A union such as matelotage may have acted as a manner of validating relationships that would otherwise have been considered against contemporary societal norms.[3] Another allusion to matelotage's significance was the disapproval it was shown by colonial authorities. Burg's conclusions and research methods are not accepted by most pirate historians.[5] Hans Turley, who also wrote on pirates and homosexual unions, said "the evidence for piratical sodomy is so sparse as to be almost nonexistent."[4]

Teague made headlines last week after news broke that she married the ghost of a 300-year-old Haitian pirate. She claims their spiritual relationship began in 2015 when she was lying in bed at home in Drogheda, Ireland, and sensed his presence. After six months of continued contact with the ghost of the deceased freebooter, she developed feelings for him and the two made plans to officiate their love for each other.

Similar to most normal relationships, the couple act out when jealous, have arguments about responsibility, go away to Dublin on weekends together for romantic getaways and even engage in lovemaking. Teague describes their chemistry as "incredible" and says that Jack is "the best sex she's ever had."

Speaking to Newsweek, Teague confirmed that their wedding was similar to one at a registry office, in the sense that it was short, small and functional. The couple held another wedding in October 2017, which involved a more comprehensive group of family and friends to better celebrate their union.

Teague says she is the first person in the U.K. and Ireland to legally marry a ghost. Despite admitting that, as it stands, the law does not expressly recognize marriage to a deceased person, Teague explains that she followed proper procedures instructed to her by lawyers to bypass the rules.

A registrar was present at the wedding who registered their marriage, Jack Teague gave consent through a medium that was independent of her and Amanda even changed her last name to his to honor their nuptials.

"If in the future I am challenged, [legal advisers] have told me that there are certain routes we could go down to try and get our marriage recognized by law.... I am willing to do it and fight [for our right to be married]," she added.

Shlomit Glaser, a family lawyer at Glaser Jones Law, told Newsweek that marrying a ghost and marrying a dead person are two different things. But "neither are legally recognized in the U.K. or Ireland."

Glaser admitted that there was one legal avenue in which it could be possible. Although she insisted that this conclusion was reached from applying general family law principles, and it has never been tested on the present set of facts and is purely speculative.

"She would have to go to a jurisdiction where it is legal, follow the procedure in that jurisdiction and when she returns to the U.K. or Ireland, she must prove that it's legal in the jurisdiction [where she was married] with proper documentation, and only then could the authorities agree to recognize it," Glaser said.

Amethyst Realm, a 27-year-old spiritual guidance counselor from Bristol, U.K., told the local paper about her sexual ectoplasmic encounters with 20 different ghosts. During an appearance on ITV's This Morning, she described to viewers her ritual to seduce ghosts, which involved wearing sexy lingerie.

In France, it is explicitly legal to marry a deceased person. Article 171 of the French civil code states: "The President of the Republic may, for serious reasons, authorize the celebration of the marriage where one of the future spouses is dead."

During World War I, the French government allowed hundreds of women to marry their partners who died in the war. Decades later, France opened up posthumous marriages for civilians as well. When a broken dam killed 400 people in Frejus, French President Charles de Gaulle allowed Irne Jodart, who lost her fianc Andr Capra in the 1959 incident, to marry his ghost.

To this day, posthumous marriages continue to be granted in France, often under similar devastating circumstances. Magali Jaskiewicz married her deceased fianc in 2009 after he died in a car accident two days after proposing to her.

Isaac Woginiak, a resident of Miami, Florida, died of a heart attack in 1987, before his impending marriage. Two weeks later, Circuit Judge George Orr ordered the court clerk to sign a marriage license on behalf of Woginiak so that his fianc could follow through with their wedding.

In China, a minghun marriage, translated to English as a spirit marriage, is a well-established tradition, albeit rarely practiced today. Across mainland China, women can engage in a minghun to marry her fianc's spirit before adopting a child to carry on his family lineage.

According to Grave Vows: A Cross-Cultural Examination of the Varying Forms of Ghost Marriage Among Five Societies by Lucas J. Schwartze, a rooster must be present at the ceremony to represent the groom, the woman must take a vow of celibacy and immediately move in with her husband's family following the wedding.

In all these examples, however, the deceased has been a person who was known to the bride prior to his death. Teague claims to have met Jack as a ghost. She never knew him while he was alive. If he was ever alive.

Newsweek could not verify Jack Teague's existence. Haiti Birth, Marriage & Death data collections on Ancestry.com date back to 1794. According to Teague, her husband was executed by hanging in 1753, after he was caught assisting the escape of slaves who were being traded.

Teague insists her husband's physical existence was the inspiration for the fictional character "Jack Sparrow," who features in the Pirates of the Caribbean movie franchise. Sparrow's father, played by Keith Richards, is the former pirate lord of Madagascar and a captain who goes by the name of Edward Teague.

Around the time the couple met in 2015, Teague was working part-time as Northern Ireland's only female Jack Sparrow impersonator, and although the coincidence may seem far-reaching for most, she insists the "real Jack" reached out to her in the afterlife because of her obsession with the movie franchise.

Entertainment reports contradict her claims. According to NME, Jack Sparrow was created by screenwriters Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio and inspired by the real Keith Richards and Looney Tunes character Pep Le Pew.

I originally planned to rent my dress from the costume company but they had to relocate during COVID and my dress disappeared during the move. I had to get one sewn in the last month before the wedding, it was incredibly stressful. The seamstress and I worked together on it, with my sewing some of the details and her working on the major parts to get it done in time.

We DIYed our stationary as well. I purchased a nautical-themed Illustrator pack and got free fonts from FontSquirrel to design our invitations, Arr-SVP cards, and day-of stationary. Chris built our website and we carried the theme there as well. When we made our cocktail kits for remote guests, a friend who owns the Polka Dot Paper Shop made us some adorable pirate ship cutouts that we made into cocktail stirrers.

We made sure to have parent speeches at the end of the ceremony so that they would be included in the live stream as well. It was important to us that everyone feel a part of the wedding and get to share in those special moments.

Anything else: We really made sure to communicate with our guests often, as plans changed. When we first decided to postpone, we let everyone know and as more changes rolled out, we kept updating our website (including adding a Health and Safety section) and reached out to everyone individually as needed.

During the climax of Pirates of the Carribbean: At World's End, Will and Elizabeth are married onboard The Black Pearl. The fact is Barbossa's first mutiny should have prevented him to be the "real" captain of the Pearl, but putting this aside I'm fairly sure that when Jack's right in the next ship fighting Jones, Barbossa couldn't be the offical captain of the Pearl. Therefore he shouldn't have the power to perform any marriage ceremony.

What I concluded from this is that their marriage may be in fact unofficial according to the maritime law, making that whole scene pointless. Even if they knew this, it would still disturb me that they consider Barbossa to be the real captain of the Pearl just because it serves them better at that moment. Either way this is one unnecessary plothole. Are they actually married?
