Attention "Descendants of Pocahontas" project:
Rumor has it that Pocahontas will be the target of a Connection Finder soon (if not already).
Descendants of Michael Pendergrass and his wife Rebecca might get all excited about a claim to Pocahontas through Rebecca, who is currently claimed to be daughter of Col Robert Thomas Bolling and known descendant of Pocahontas Jane Rolfe.
But Jane had only one child-- John Bolling-- and so cannot be the mother of Rebecca who married Michael Pendergrass.
That connection should be severed so Pendergrass descendants don't get all excited when the Connection Finder with Pocahontas gets going...
Thanks!
Speaking of Powhatan, this Pocahontas thread from yesterday caused me to discover some bizarre mythology (bizarre to me at least; some of the rest of you might be familiar with it) that marries Shawnee to Powhatans and Powhatans to Cherokees (with at least one Englishman in the mix) in the early 1600s.
