Possibly, but my guess would be the better-known Cheng I Sao aka Mrs. Cheng, whom I coincidentally mentioned on LJ this weekend in a completely different context: http://www.pantherbay.com/bio_cheng.php
Hmm. Not much on her online. There's a lot more juicy details in the pirate histories I was reading, including that she ended up so powerful that the government had to cut a deal with her, and she retired wealthy and opened a casino (well, the Asian 1800s equivalent) and died peacefully and old.
