Pocahontas was baptized and given what English name?

I VE ALWAYS WONDERED IF CONVERTING TO CHRISTIANITY WAS HER IDEA OR IF THE SETTLERS COERCED HER. ALSO HER MARRIAGE TO KOHN ROLFE.

I had no idea that Pocahontas was not her real name nor that she was baptised, sprinkled by the look of it. Thats the most interesting bit of American history I think I have heard, maybe ever. We get stories about wars but nothing interesting about real people outside of war. Or did she live in. War as well? Australians don’t get much American history, nor our own for that matter. More European stuff when I was at school. France, Germany, even Egypt but nothing very interesting. Mostly wars.

Tommy T, Go to school in the Southern parts of the US, and you barely get past the Civil War! I did not know this stuff either, and I find it disgusting that Christians did this to her and still go around the world demanding people convert to their beliefs for their own satisfaction. The Native American's had/have the right way to live and respect the land.

Player Say what!?, blame it on the good old Daughters of the Confederacy they white washed history so bad It's hard to know what to truly believe. There's a new group trying to do it now too

Mel, I always thought it was John Smith!!

I never knew she became a Christian… very interesting!

Mel, I’ve wondered the exact same thing.

Tommy T, now u got me singing that WAR song in my head!! ;) War, what is it good for? Absolutely Nothing....

BamaBell, well, it's like I always tell my niece--It will ALL come out in the wash! God knows abt Everything and will set ALL matters right. In other words, Don't worry, God's got this under control and will Fix anything wrong Very soon!! :)

Player Say what!?, It is true that the Indians have the Proper view of how to take Care of the land and animals. When they killed an animal, by golly, they used Everything from that animal. I mean, the meat, the skin and the bones too!! And better than the white man, they DID NOT Kill for sport, like some do today!! You could say they believed in Waste NOT, want NOT!! ;)

Who was Pocahontas!?

brooke, She also moved to England and us buried in Gravesend in Kent near to where Iive

There they go again. killing a nation.
