I was reading from the The Historic St. Johns site was stated the Reverend Whittaker baptised Pocahontas. He was Rector of Saint Johns, so I assumed he married her there (my mistake). Anyway, I am not trying to change the discussion focus. My point was that the church had members who were Mulatto (Native), and may have had a cemetery on the grounds (albeit seperate), for these members. I guess it should be a question. Would they have had a seperate graveyard on Church grounds for non whites? Also, does anyone know of a Lewis cemetery in Richmond? "The Reverend Alexander Whittaker was appointed rector for this first Henricus church. Whittaker gained fame as the minister who baptized Pocahontas, giving her the Christian name of Rebecca, and who married her to John Rolfe in 1614. In 1617 Whittaker drowned in the James River. His associate William Wickham held the Parish Church together, awaiting the arrival from England of the Reverend Thomas Bargrave in 1619."

That is what I thought as well, but my understanding was that Pocahontas was married at St. Johns in Richnmond. I have Native ancestors (who were listed as Mulatto), and belonged to the Episcopal Church during Colonial Times. I do not know if they were buried there (Lewis is only one of my family surnames), but they were Christians.

Does anyone know if there were seperate cemeteries for persons of color. My ancestor resided in Richmond and Henrico County, and died around 1800. He lived in the area of Rocketts Landing. I am trying to find a cemetery he and the rest of the family may be buried in. He is listed as Mulatto in the census records for Henrico and Richmond (1783-1800). I am looking for a Lewis family cemetery in Henrico and/or Richmond. He may also be buried at St. Johns in Richmond.

Google it, there are several societies for descendants of French Huguenots. They list recognized names. The Huguenots came over far earlier than there were any "naturalization" documents- mostly in the early 1700s, but some later and a few in the 1600s.
