What did the Native Americans do at the Carmel Mission?

Native Americans were either captured or chased to 'missions' where they were often held at gun point, or other threat, and made to say they believed in 'God.' Because this was a legal qualification required by law, once they admitted this they were considered 'heathens' and under the direct control of the church.

Who made an impact on henrico county?

Henrico Pocahontas is a prominent figure in early American history. She was the daughter of Powhatan, the chief of Tsenacommacah in Tidewater Virginia. Pocahontas is most famously linked to the English colonist Captain John Smith, who arrived in Virginia with just more than a hundred other settlers in April 1607.

Her marriage to John Rolfe, who developed Virginia tobacco, bridged the gap between the English and Indian cultures. It created a climate of peace between the Jamestown colonists and Powhatan's tribes for several years. Today Pocahontas appears on the Henrico County seal as a symbol of County government's on-going efforts to unify the diversity within this community,
