Pocahontas

The story of Pocahontas, the beloved daughter of Powhatan, has been enjoyed by schoolchildren for generations. Stories handed down in books and Disney's largely fictionalized version of the maiden have made her famous and larger than life. This category is to separate fact from fiction about Pocahontas, Powhatan, John Rolfe and, of course, John Smith.

Why was Pocahontas also called lady rebecca?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Pocahontas was given the English name Lady Rebecca when she converted to Christianity and married Englishman John Rolfe. This was a common practice for Native Americans who integrated into English colonial society. The name change also represented her elevated status as a married woman and her association with European culture.

Why did English colonists come to Jamestown?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In June of 1606, King James I granted a charter to a group of London entrepreneurs, the Virginia Company, to establish a satellite English settlement in the Chesapeake region of North America. By December, 104 settlers sailed from London instructed to settle Virginia, find gold, and seek a water route to the Orient. Some traditional scholars of early Jamestown history believe that those pioneers could not have been more ill-suited for the task. Because Captain John Smith identified about half of the group as "gentlemen," it was logical, indeed, for historians to assume that these gentry knew nothing of or thought it beneath their station to tame a wilderness. Recent historical and archaeological research at the site of Jamestown suggest that at least some of the gentlemen, and certainly many of the artisans, craftsmen, and laborers who accompanied them, all made every effort to make the colony succeed.

Did Pocahontas marry John Rolfe?

Asked by Wiki User

Yes Pocahontas Did Marry Kocoum. The Real Pocahontas Anyway. The Disney Pochontas Didnt as Kocoum Died In The Story. The Real Pocahontas never married or even had a relationship with John Smith as she was only 10 when she met him when he came to Jamestown looking for gold. He was over 15 years older than her at the time. After He Left, many years later Pocahontas is said to have married Kocoum. Although nothing much is known about their relationship. A few years later she moved to London as the wife of John Rolfe (Not John Smith). Suggestions Have Been Made That Pocahontas was still married to Kocoum at the time. After Her Marrage To Rolfe She was Baptised and Called Lady Rebecca and From That Day On Known as Rebecca Rolfe.

Asked by Wiki User

Apparently she died of natural causes, according to many websites and other sources. She became sick after she boarded a ship to return to Virginia and died shortly after being brought ashore. Some sources say she died from possibly pneumonia, tuberculosis, small pox, or even from being poisoned.

Asked by Wiki User

The story we know is not true. Actually the colonist landed in an area of 14,000 Native Americans and in the worse land in the area. Powhatan pretty much left them alone. I think he figured that they would die from the bad water and disease . He was fairly right. Within 6 months there were only 34 men left alive of the 104 who came. It wasn't until after his death that the brother of Powhatan attacked the colony. The story about Smith is also not true. He did NOT save Jamestown. He was only there a very few months and he lied about his contribution to the settlement in a book he wrote several years later. He also made up the story about Pocahontas and she died young so couldn't refute his story. The man who did save Jamestown was the husband of Pocahontas and gave tobacco seeds to the colony. That was John Rolfe.

Asked by Wiki User

Pocahontas was known for saving John Smith's life. And being the chiefs daughter.

The chiefs name was Powhatan. She saved John Smith's life by asking her dad not to kill him.

Note: Her real name was Matoaca- Pocahontas was a nickname. Despite the Disney cartoon, she was 9 years old when she met Cpt. Smith, and was not in love with him. She did marry another Englishman, John Rolfe, when she was older, and became Lady Rebecca Rolfe.
