Captain John Jennings was a colonial officer in Virginia during the late 17th century. He is best known for his involvement in Bacon's Rebellion in 1676, where he served as a captain in the forces loyal to Governor William Berkeley. Jennings was a critic of Nathaniel Bacon, who led a rebellion against the colonial government, demanding more aggressive action against Native American tribes. Ultimately, Jennings' loyalty to Berkeley placed him on the opposing side of the rebellion, which aimed to address grievances related to land and governance.
