John Silver doesn't necessarily have a mysterious past. He's simply a survivor. He lies, cheats, steals and hustles to get ahead in life. His past is irrelevant.
No.
The show sort of functions as a prequel for Treasure Island, the Robert Louis Stevenson novel which introduced many of the tropes which we associate with pirates today (buried treasure, mysterious islands, peg legs, etc). The characters of Flint, John Silver, and Billy Bones, are all major characters from Treasure Island.
The show also includes a number of real historical figures: Jack Rackham, Charles Vane, Anne Bonney, Benjamin Hornigold, Israel Hands, Ned Low, Blackbeard and Woodes Rogers were all real people who were active during this period in the Caribbean. But the story of Black Sails diverges from the real story of their lives.
