Is capt john smith and john wolf the same person in the story of Pocahontas?
You're probably referring to John Rolfe, who should not be confused with John Smith. Captain John Smith was the colonial governor who was captured. He was released by Powhatan, perhaps after intervention by Powhatan's 12-year-old daughter Pocahontas. John Rolfe is the English gentleman whom Pocahontas later married.
Where were John Rolfe and John Smith From?
Smith was an Englishman who was sent to Jamestown in the second year of the colony. He later wrote a book about his short time there and lied. Pocahontas was a little Native American girl who may have met Smith, but her story is more interesting than what is told in the fable about her. She was kidnapped by the leader of the colony, held for 4 years, renamed Rebecca, became a Christian, married John Rolfe, left for England, had a baby boy, and died at the age of 19 or 20.
Did Pocahontas marry John Smith in real life?
No. In fact she married John Rolfe, a famous tobacco farmer, against her will when she was taken hostage by Captain Samuel Argall (the second leader of Jamestown when John Smith went back to England because of a gunpowder wound).No.She married John Rolfe.In Disney's Movie you might have thought that.i am reaserching on Pocahontas so im serching for informationPocahontas was a nickname for the native girl named Mokota who was intrigued by John Smith. After she saved him from getting his brains busted, they became close friends. Later, he was injured and returned to England, and she was told he was dead. She married John Rolfe at 16, and several years after he brought her to England to meet with King James and Queen Anne. She never had a royal hearing, but she did wait on the queen as one of her ladies. She met up with John Smith again in England when he learned that she was about to move back to Virginia. During that time, she called him "father" because that was the way she felt about him, and she said that he should call her "child." It was only several weeks later that she died in England.No. She married John Rolfe in April 1614, when she was 18 or 19 years old.She was only about 12 when she allegedly interceded for John Smith in December, 1607its really married but o well. any ways no after a while he was captured, Pocahontas was told he was dead. but he really was not. she left an got married to john Rolfe. she saw him again an lets just say they talked an agreed never to see each other again! that's terrible! :( that's the best i got :)Yes
How is john white so important to Jamestown?
Actually it was John Smith who saved Jamestown by making the settlers work. If they didn't work, they didn't get any food. Later, John Rolfe planted tobacco and the economy flourished.
Why was John Smith not married to Pocahontas?
She didn't save Smith and she was a little girl. 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.

Did Pocahontas marry John Rolfe?
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.
