As for the Corsairs, all the King's Men were most likely extirpated by Gondor or interbred with Haradrim. I know it's mentioned somewhere in the text, but until I find it, have a Tolkien GAteway quote.

"Vengeance, if not swift, was certainly devastating; by 78 years later the Corsairs raided as far as Anfalas and Minardil's great-grand nephew Telumehtar punished them. In an attack he destroyed the fortress and haven of the Corsairs and drove them out. After this victory he renamed himself Umbardacil but left Umbar unsettled and ruined, apparently as a protective garrison.

In the meantime the Haradrim were "engaged in wars and feuds of their own" and threatened by the Wainriders' empire from Rhûn[10]. But this did not prevent Umbar to be lost again when enemies invaded Gondor from the east and south in T.A. 1944, preventing Gondor to use it to support its forces from the sea; Eärnil's Southern Army vanquished the invaders.

Umbar had been reclaimed by the Haradrim, rebuilt and occupied and for the rest of the Third Age it became a home for a new generation of 'Corsairs of Umbar', who must have been closely related to the Haradrim, if not even merely Haradrim themselves. These new Corsairs were cruel slavers who often raided the coasts of Belfalas and Anfalas in Gondor: in T.A. 2746 for example, Amrothos, the 15th Prince of Dol Amroth fell defending Dor-en-Ernil against them."
