Fascinating information...but you do know that Pocahontas married John Rolfe, not John Smith, don’t you?

Yeah.

But there is strong, though circumstantial, evidence that Pocahontas and John Smith had two children prior to her marriage to Rolfe.

Our family tradition is that we are descended from their son Peregrine.

Can’t prove it from the official records though. The Crown could have easily executed Smith for this illicit union.
