Hunter, Hatutu - Paradisiac Islands?

Uninhabited but known islands for their famous shipwrecked

Hututu, Hatutu, Halaveli islands… do these names tell you nothing? No trace near or far in your family tree? No panic, it is not abnormal, it is even completely the opposite. For what ? Simply because they are uninhabited islands.

Most of these small islands are in the Pacific Ocean or the Indian Ocean, Hattu for example is in French Polynesia, and has an area of ​​6.6 km². Even smaller, Hunter Island is only a km². Despite this, there are some of them on temporary occupations, especially on Hatutu. While some of you have grass-cruson Robinson in their ancestors, perhaps they have stayed in these islands. 

The uninhabited islands are not very conducive to human life, and that it would be a little crazy to voluntarily go into exile on such a island in full autarky, most of those who have passed there are shipwrecked, for some who have remained in memories. Alexandre Selkirk for example, the man who inspired Daniel Defoe to write Robinson Crusoe. If he asked to be abandoned on the island in view of the pitiful state of the ship on which he was to navigate, he immediately changed his mind once he had put to the ground, but the commander refused to turn around to rescue him. 

Here he is off for 4 years of solitude, because unlike legend, he did not meet on Friday, but only dogs, goats and wild cats ... Enough to allow him to survive until his rescue on February 2, 1709. 

Another famous shipwrecked: Pedro Luis Serrano, Spanish sailor, who has remained 7 years on an island, which is located in the Pacific or in the Caribbean depending on the versions. But perhaps it is better to be shipwrecked on a desert island than on an island inhabited by Cannibals, as James Cook experienced in Hawaii on February 14, 1779, in what - ironic withdrawal - was formerly called ... the sandwich islands. 

You will understand, on these tiny pieces of earth no need to search the archives or other decennial tables to find an ancestor, unless you are convinced to get down from a wild animal. If there is little chance that these islands contain information on your genealogy, why not take to dream of an explorer ancestor? One of them may have visited the Hunter or Hatutu Islands.
