Pocahontas’s birthday was September 17. (don’t like to forget, we are supposedly related) Matoaka, Flower-Between-Rivers, was born about 1597 in the Mattaponi village of Werowocomoco. Her father was Wahunsenaca, Chief of the Powhatan Confederacy (Mom never made the history books). Her nickname was Pocahontas, Tomboy.
