Gil, this must make us distant cousins, I am a descendant of John Rolfe and his pre-Pochahontas wife Jane Pierce on my father's side of the family. My mother's family are descendants of some of the earlier settlers of Jamestown (Thomas Thornbury and his wife Alice Lane), he is listed on the Ancient Planter's website noted above. The genealogy of most of these folks are well documented
Most of my ancestors came out of the Virginia and Pennsylvania areas, I don't have any ancestors that came over on the Mayflower either.
