c. 1613 - Pocahantas being baptized

by John Gadsby Chapman

Pocahontas, daughter of the Algonkian chief Powhatan, was baptized and named Rebecca
in an Anglican church in Jamestown, Virginia. Her subsequent marriage to John Rolph
helped establish peaceful relations between the colonists and the Tidewater tribes.
