Accredited with the first successful cultivation of tobacco as an export crop in West Virginia. With his marriage to Pocahontas, the Algonquin chief Powhatan's daughter, brought on a temporary truce between the Algonquin and the English i think it was the Cesapeake and not the Algonquin He was a Jamestown leader.
