the brothers [[Godfrey de Frou-Frou Maple]] and [[Maginot de Vere Maple]] were Parisian chocolatiers, shipwrecked on the coast of Grand Cayman  in ''[[Die Fliegenden Dudelsäcke]]'' in 1891 — an ordeal during which they first encountered [[George Robert Macguire Ugland]], with whom they would forge a lasting and fruitful relationship. The brothers gave the cocoa bean away and established themselves in then scarcely populated islands as attorneys, advising on the financing behind the construction of the Tortuga Rum Company and the [[Tortuga Cayman Islands Rum Cake Co., Inc]]. One thing led to another and before you knew it they were world-leading structured finance attorneys. Their firm, [[Maple, Maple & Cie]] merged with arch-rival [[ A. J. N. Calder]] in 1941 to found [[Maples and Calder]].
