Montiano sent Moral's nephew to reconnoiter the Georgia coast
Montiano believed they were being trained as an invasion force and sent out Captain Sebastian Sanchez, the nephew of ex-governor Moral, to reconnoiter the Georgia coast. He was discovered almost immediately, however, and sent back to Saint Augustine with a report that confirmed what Montiano already knew—that the English had strengthened the fortifications at Frederica and were drilling militia there.
