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.
