Sometime between 1692 and 1696 Misson's pirate colony of Libertalia was failing having been set upon by the Portuguese who had discovered the entrance to the hidden bay. Misson entrusted his "treasure" to Thomas Tew and Arthur Jones who were at that time residing on the nearby French colony of Ile du St Marie Madagascar. Tew and Jones vowed to deliver the treasure to safety in Virginia.
Upon return of the Amity to the Americas, Tew feigned distress and returned first to Rhode Island and made a stop at "Coney Island" where they offloaded Misson's Portion (as well as some of their own) prior to proceeding to Barbados to render accounts to the owners of the Amity cargo. An inquest was held in 1696 during which witness reports revealed that the disposition of the cargo was not reported and that the pirates were trying to extort their share from the remains. Several of the crew were found guilty and hung. Among these were Arthur Jones and Samuel Nanney.
Oral histories among some of the descendants of Jones and Nanney reveal that Coney Island was in fact "Coney's Island" in Virginia (the home of Arthur Jones whose wife was a sister of former governor of Bermuda, Richard Coney), and that "Misson's Portion" was in fact the young daughter of Captain Misson who later married the son of Arthur Jones.
