Thanks for posting this article, RR.

The first immigrants to the VA Colony from England with my surname arrived ~1620 and lived in Olde Jamestown.

They were killed in 1622 during the attack by Opechancanough and his warriors, along with hundreds of other Colonists.

Their small baby boy was found alive and is thought to have been raised by the mother’s parents, who lived nearby.

If not for that baby boy, I wouldn’t be here.
