C. T. Suddeth

On this day, March 21, 1617, Pocahontas was buried in Graveside, Kent, England after becoming ill on her way home. She was born about 1597 in the Mattaponi village of Werowocomoco. Her father was Wahunsenaca, Chief of the Powhatan Confederacy. She left behind a daughter, Ka-Okee, Little-Goose and a son, Thomas Rolfe. The Suddeths settled in Jamestown and married into her family—she is either my 9^th great grandmother or great-aunt.
