Captain John Smith
Jamestown was the first successful English settlement founded in North America. Most settlers were Polish and German colonists.
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.
John Smith took control of Jamestown in 1608
Becuase smith announced "he that shall not work shall not eat"

The Jamestown governor who is known for giving each man land was Sir Thomas Dale. He implemented the "headright" system in the early 1610s, which granted land to settlers as an incentive to attract more colonists to the struggling settlement. This policy helped establish a more stable and productive community in Jamestown.
John Rolfe improved ways of preserving the pungent weed, but I am unsure of who first cultivated the tobacco in Virginia.
