Historical story

How long was John Smith with pocahantas?

Pocahontas was born around 1595 and Smith's relationship with Pocahontas began in 1607, when he was captured by Powhatan, her father, and sentenced to death. However, Pocahontas saved Smith's life by placing her body over his and convincing her father to spare his life. Smith returned to Jamestown and Pocahontas continued to visit him, bringing food, supplies, and warning of attacks by Powhatan's men. Smith left for England in 1609 and never returned to Jamestown. So in total, John Smith was with pocahantas for about 2 years.
