Answer 1

Bootstrap Bill Turner. Yes the other one is Capt. Barbossa.

Nothing is known about Barbossa before he joins the Black Pearl. His name can indicate a possible Portuguese and/or Spanish ancestry, though he speaks with an Irish accent.

Barbossa was the First Mate on the Black Pearl, a Pirate Ship commanded by Captain Jack Sparrow. Barbossa asked Captain Sparrow to tell him the bearings of Isla de Muerte, believed to be a stronghold of Aztec gold; trusting Barbossa, Sparrow told him the location. That night, Barbossa led a mutiny against Sparrow and took over the Black Pearl, leaving Sparrow marooned on an island with a single-shot pistol (presumably with which to commit suicide rather than to die from starvation/loneliness/dehydration). The remaining crew found the Aztec treasure to which Jack had been leading them, and shared it among themselves - calling down an ancient Aztec curse in the process. To lift the curse, the crew realized that they must return all the Aztec gold to Isla de Muerta; at the time the film begins, they have recovered 881 of the 882 gold coins. Barbossa and the crew then spend the course of the film searching for the last coin, in the possession of Will Turner and then Elizabeth Swann.

Barbossa is shot by Jack Sparrow (with the same pistol Barbossa had left him when he marooned Sparrow on the island) just before the two final coins and necessary blood are returned to the chest. Barbossa looks at the blood pouring from the wound, and says that he feels cold, his first feeling since the curse was put upon him. After he falls down, a close up of his face shows he is eerily content with his fate.

Barbossa has a strange passion for apples which appear several times in the film; he asks Elizabeth whether she wants one and also tells her that after the curse is lifted he'd eat a whole bushel of apples; also there are apples on his cabin table and at the end of the film when "he dies" an apple falls from his hand. This representation of the apple could be linked to a number of things; the deadly apple that Eve partook from the Devil disguised as a snake; a reference in the film "a man so evil that hell himself spat him back out" or perhaps from Disney itself; being the apple that is so infamous from Snow White's tale. Being one of the first of Disney cartoon classics in which the Evil Queen attempted to kill Snow White with a poisoned apple. Indeed Elizabeth comments when she is offered an apple, "It's poisoned". Of course this later proves to be wrong as Barbossa tells her and also as Jack eats one himself later on in the film. Most obviously it is a Vanitas style reference, particularly apt for a character incapable of dying. Apart from symbolism, it may be that one of Barbossa's simple (that is, not homicidal) pleasures in life was an apple and that several years of being unable to feel, smell, or taste turned a pleasure into a constant craving.

Barbossa appears in one scene in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest - the final scene, and has a single line, the final line of the film, "Now tell me, what's become of my ship?" He then takes a bite out of a green apple, a reference to the first film in the trilogy and also an indicator that he is alive and uncursed.
Captain Hector Barbossa, usually shortened to Captain Barbossa, is a fictional character in the Pirates of the Caribbean movie trilogy played by actor Geoffrey Rush. He is the captain of the cursed undead pirates, and as such transforms into a rotting skeleton under moonlight. Also, he and his crew could not be killed by a sword nor a gunshot as long as they were cursed. It is said that he was so evil that hell literally spat him out. He has a pet monkey, named Jack after Captain Jack Sparrow. Captain Barbossa's first name was revealed in a director's commentary on the DVD.

His name is based on Barbarossa

Answer 2

His dad is Bootstrap Bill Turner... the guy with a starfish on his face. His dad's real name is William Turner. Davy Jones took him into his crew when he was trapped on the bottom of the ocean and unable to die because of the curse from the first movie.

Barbossa was cursed in the first movie because he stole the Aztec gold. The curse was lifted just in time for him to die from a gunshot from Jack Sparrow. We don't yet know how he managed to come back. That will most likely be revealed in the third movie.

Answer 3

Will Turner's dad is Bootstrap Bill.

We'll have to wait until the sequel to see how Barbosa survived being shot by Jack Sparrow on Curse of the Black Pearl.

Answer 4

neither of them is his dad. will turner senior is his dad. he's the one that had barnacles all stuck to his face. the one that talked to jack sparrow when he was getting rum in the middle of the night on the black pearl. barbossa isn't cursed anymore he's just alive for some weird reason. it'll explain the reason in the third movie i'm sure...
