Captain John Smith was knighted by King James I of England in 1603. This honor was bestowed upon him following his contributions to the early English colonization efforts in America, particularly his role in establishing the Jamestown settlement in Virginia. Smith's leadership and exploration helped to encourage further English ventures into the New World.
