The Patriot War, Schooner Ann/Anne-- Part 11" And, the George Strong


This involved another ship, the George Strong, that the Anne had captured and evidently used as a tender.

Buffalo Commercial Advertiser

The GEORGE STRONG --  It appears that the robbery of this vessel amounted to the buying , by the British officers,  of ten cords and a quarter of wood, and sundries, for which full payment was made.

It also appears that she was sort of a tender to the piratical Anne.

So, at least some Americans regarded the actions of the Patriots as piratical.
