When you say Thanksgiving, most people think of the Pilgrims, Plymouth Rock, and New England.

However, the FIRST Thanksgiving in the New World was in Virginia, at what is now Berkeley Plantation. That took place in November of 1619. This was officially recognized in a proclamation by President John F. Kennedy.
