Who made an impact on henrico county?
Henrico Pocahontas is a prominent figure in early American history. She was the daughter of Powhatan, the chief of Tsenacommacah in Tidewater Virginia. Pocahontas is most famously linked to the English colonist Captain John Smith, who arrived in Virginia with just more than a hundred other settlers in April 1607. In December 1607, while exploring, Smith was captured by a hunting party and brought to Powhatan. The Indians started to execute him, but Pocahontas stepped in and saved his life. Pocahontas was captured by the settlers in the First Anglo-Powhatan War, a conflict between the Jamestown settlers and the Native Americans that began late in the summer of 1609. She learned English and became a Christian while living in Henricus, a tidewater town along the James River. In 1614, she acted as an intermediary between the English and the Powhatan men. Her marriage to John Rolfe, who developed Virginia tobacco, bridged the gap between the English and Indian cultures. It created a climate of peace between the Jamestown colonists and Powhatan's tribes for several years. Today Pocahontas appears on the Henrico County seal as a symbol of County government's on-going efforts to unify the diversity within this community,
