John Rolfe and Pocahontas played a crucial role in the survival and prosperity of the Jamestown colony. Rolfe is credited with introducing tobacco as a cash crop, which became the economic backbone of the colony and helped ensure its financial stability. Pocahontas, a Native American woman, served as a vital link between the Native tribes and the English settlers, fostering peace and cooperation that aided the colony's early years. Their marriage symbolized a moment of cultural exchange and contributed to a temporary easing of hostilities between the two groups.
He did NOT save Jamestown. He was only there a very few months and he lied about his contribution to the settlement in a book he wrote several years later. He also made up the story about Pocahontas and she died young so couldn't refute his story. The man who did save Jamestown was the husband of Pocahontas and gave tobacco seeds to the colony. That was John Rolfe.
Pocahontas's brother was in the Powhatan tribe
The only mention of a connection between John Smith and Pocahontas was in John Smith's memoirs that he wrote several years after returning from the colony. The actual likelihood of John Smith having ever known Pocahontas is remote. Pocahontas was married to John Rolfe, the one of the more affluent settlers in the Virginia Colony of Jamestown. She had been taken captive by him in a raid, and perhaps in an attempt to establish an ally relationship with her father, Powhatan the chief of the Five Tribes, he mimicked the practice of the Powhatan Renape or Virginia Algonquians. This was in fact quite successful. The only real relationship between Captain John Smith and Pocahontas was that he visited Virginia Colony and she was there when the white settlers arrived. Oh, and Disney perpetuated the myth of a nonexistent love affair in that cartoon.

Jamestown.
Pocahontas was 12 when John Smith was being executed so she was at least 11 or 12 when the English arrived.
The Jamestown colony settler that married Pocahontas in 1614 was John Rolfe. After she married John, she started using the name Rebecca Rolfe.
John Smith respected Pocahontas because if it wasn't for her, he would have been dead. She also saved the colony from starvation time after time again.
The Native Americans, such as Pocahontas, gave them assistance and advice on how to survive.
She didn't change anything. She was about 10 years old when the Jamestown colony was established and later she will marry John Rolf who brought tobacco to the colony.
