Notes:

Since her father was from a very prominent family in England, all his daughters were highly sought after by the wealthy businessman of Jamestown. This is the clue needed to discern Christian's husband's, John Martin's, lineage as there were only two John Martins of early New England from the well to do class of England. The other one is accounted by YDNA that goes back to a general of William the Conqueror. Her husband, John Martin, is accounted for by the "Peerage of Devon" Martins.

Notes:

Ka-Okee is traditionally the daughter of Keocum Japasaw and Matoaka whom is known by Americans as Pocahontas. The sources stating this are Wikipedia, The Shawne Heritage Book, V. IV, p. 99-102, The True Story of Pocahontas: The Other Side of History, by. Dr. Angela Daniel and Linwood Custalo, The National Park Service, WebNetherlands and Find-A-Grave. The Smithsonian Magazine and recent historians have also been published this Indian's tribe oral history.

Ka-Okee was an young child when her mother, Pocahontas, was taken by the British. She by some traditions had a brother also. She was raised by her mother's oldest sister and her husband. When she married a Col. Thomas Petuss who was of influence and wealthy birth in Europe, their subsequent daughters were greatly desired by the men also from families of stature in England.

Notes:

The Powhatten oral history gives us a much different understanding of Matoaka "Pocahontas" 's sad life. Here is a summary of it at https://www.americanindianmagazine.org/story/pocahontas-first-marriage-powhatan-side-story"Virginia institutions are preparing to celebrate the 400th anniversary (2014) of the Pocahontas

Her story from her tribes point of view, is very different than the Disney version of her life. Both accounts agree that she did help save the fledgling Jamestown in their first year of survival. She was repaid by being kidnaped by the British, only to be converted to Christianity, taken to England to drum up monetary support for the Jamestown Colony, married to John Rolfe, died and buried in England at the mere age of 21. The English ignored the fact that she had a marriage to an Indian husband by whom she had 2 small children at the time of her entrapment by them. Her daughter, Ka-Ochee, was our direct ancestor. This information in part, is by a teenaged European boy who was traded by the English so that he could learn the Powhattan language. He ran away from the village after six months to Pocahantas' sister and her husband where he was put in charge of "babysitting" little Ka-Ochee after her mother, Pocahontas' imprisonment on the English ship.

Matoaka, as was her birth name, also had a son Thomas Rolfe, whom many trace through. It is not known if Thomas Rolfe was the son of John Rolfe or another gentry on the ship whom molested her.

I am very proud to be her descendant and so feel for her.
