According to popular legend, Powhatan spared the captive and colonist John Smith because his daughter Pocahontas intervened, having fallen in love with him. This is how the story has been played out in the Disney movie Pocahontas. These events, however, cannot be entirely substantiated as John Smith was known to tell many far-out tales about his time in captivity.

Would you use an apostrophe in the sentence Please meet the Smith's?
The Smiths in this case would simply be the plural of Smith. So there would be NO apostrophe. Plural, meaning both persons as a married couple: Please meet the Smiths. The Smiths were away when their house was robbed. Plural Singular The robber took the Smith's television. The Smith's home owners policy covered the theft. IF you had a large meeting for all families named Smith, the simple plural would also be Smiths. However, for plural possessive, you'd first have Smiths with an apostrophe added, like this: All the Smiths from Washington, DC attended a city-wide picnic. While there, all the Smiths' (s apostrophe) cars were vandalized. The picnic's promoters, the Browns, were doubly embarrassed; none of the Browns' (s apostrophe) cars were damaged. If you have more than one person of a surname, just add 's'-- unless the name ends in s. (Smiths) If you have more than one person of a surname, so you add s, to make it possessive, add apostrophe after the plural s. (Smiths' coats... Smiths' cars... Smiths' cellphones...)
