This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Randolph, Hesler, Cole Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/HOCBAIB/963.1 Message Board Post: Mel, I have heard this many times, Randolph is not my main line, but John Gibson Hesler married Arminta Pocahontas Randolph bef July 1886, she was born 14 Feb 1867 in Neosho, Missouri. Her father was George Wirt Smartt Randolph. The decendancy is as follows: Henry Randolph IV, William Randolph, Isham Randolph, George Wirt Smartt Randolph, Arminta Pocahontas Randolph. Arminta's mother was Rebecca Jane Evans Cole. Arminta is buried in Oakland Cemetery, Siloam Springs, Arkansas. I don't know if this is where the story starts or not, like you I have never seen any real connection to the "real" Pocahontas.
