Henry SpelmanHenry Spelman was a new arrival in England’s Jamestown colony who, at age fourteen, was sent to live with the Powhatans, Pocahontas's people. Henry is unique among boys who lived with Native people because he wrote about his experiences, and hs memoir is a major source on Chesapeake Algonquian life in the early days of English colonization.
