No, John Smith did not propose to Pocahontas for John Rolfe. John Smith was a close friend of Pocahontas and played a significant role in her life, but the marriage between Pocahontas and John Rolfe was a separate event. Pocahontas and Rolfe were married in 1614, primarily as a means to establish peace between the Jamestown settlers and the Powhatan Confederacy. Smith's involvement with Pocahontas was more about their friendship and mutual respect rather than any proposal for Rolfe.
