In my opinion, her *data* is inaccurate, to say the least. She changes names and dates around, and has professed herself to be related to just about every historical figure imaginable, including Jesus. My advice is to do your own research with reputable sources.

This is the most information I've seen posted on the Chief and Jane. Where did you get this information? I'd love to hear more about John's wife and father in law. How does the most vicious chief (according to books I've read) have a daughter who marries a white man? I hope you read this-I'm very interested on how I can find more info! Tara Melissa,

I spoke with one of the guides and she gave me many resources to try. 1. Visit the local pamunkey tribe located near Jamestown. 2. Research chief EP at the Williamsburg regional library 3. Contact the Museum of the American Indian in D.C. 4. If all fails above, then contact Helen Roundtree, an expert in Jamestown Indians. I plan on going to the library at my next visit. My relative is John Dod, Dods, Dodsen, Dodson. I have always searched Powhatan, but should probably search Pamunkey too. Actually, the Pamunkey were more friendly with John smith than the Powhatan were...it's more likely that Jane Eagle Plume was a Pamunkey. What research have you done? Susan,

I have heard alot of rumours and would like to put it to all to rest. Also, was Opechancanough ever called "Chief Eagle Plume" by whites? Thank you for any help you can be.
