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 Maguire 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 et Cie]] merged with arch-rival [[ A. J. N. Calder]] in 1941 to found [[Maples and Calder]].
