That area of Eastern Virginia had lots of pirates and one of the stories that I learned of was from the town of Port Royal, Virginia, not too far from Jamestown. There was a French pirate named Peumand that terrorized the townspeople and had a hide out up one of the creeks. The townspeople finally became so tired of his harassment that they pooled their money and hired a posse of men to hunt him down. The creek still bears the pirates name to this day "Peumans End" .

About 8 months ago I was looking for where people with my last name, which is Dew, originated. I found it most likely originally Irish or Scottish and meant dark skinned(That was surprising) and I found references to the Dew name back to around 100 a.d.. While going through search results a name caught my eye. It was Allen Dew which is my fathers name and it said he did research on the Dew family tree. I emailed him and gave some information about my father and grandfather and he e-mailed me back and said yes we are related. I was kinda shocked it so easily came together and asked for more info. He sent me a direct line back to 1560. A man named Thomas Dew(Thomas was a popular name in my family) who was a bookseller in St. Dunstun, London, England. My favorite ancestor is Thomas”captain”Dew born in 1760 and fought in the Revolutionary War and founded a town called Dewsville in Virginia and from what I found while researching him was quite the character and was a popular, well respected man. I was surprised how much I eventually found about a few of my ancestors. Dew is definitely not a common last name and probably helped a lot in finding information

But, his father and predecessor, James I, didn't die until late March of 1625, so Charles wasn't running things quite yet.

That is a fascinating little known side of the colonization of Virginia. I am from Bermuda, and the Spanish tried to interfere in it's colonization too. Much of Bermuda's early energy was used in building defensive forts. Eventually the Royal Naval Dockyard was a vital bastion off the US coast following 1776. New forts were still built in the 1800s in case those "non-colonising" Americans cast their eyes on Bermuda! 😉

I could watch these all day... every day! Thank you for the history! History, in my most humble opinion, is the most informative, fascinating and important subject any school can offer to their students. I grew up listening to the old timers telling their tales of WWI, WWII and the Korean War. Being a New Mexican, I was also privy to many tales of the old west, such as skirmishes with American outlaws, Mexican bandidos and cattle rustlers (including Pancho Villa's raid on the Columbus and Lordsburg areas near where I was raised) and Comanche and Apache raiders. Though, my favorite historical accounts relate to early American Naval and Marine engagements. Conrad Hilton was born December 25, 1887 in San Antonio, Socorro County in the New Mexico Territories. He wrote two books, Be My Guest and Inspirations of an Innkeeper, that are very interesting, informative and inspirational. They are some of my favorite books to this day, being second, likely because of my New Mexican bias, only to Charles Dickens.

When I was 19 I took a job as a deck hand on an 80' sailing charter for "something different." In the second week in the Gulf/Caribbean, off the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula, we were assaulted by a group of pirates, right at dawn. Fortunately, the Captain was plenty savvy and brought out a pair of AR-15s and several full ammo boxes w/ which we immediately used to great effect, but only after he showed me how to release the safety and use its sights; I can laugh, now. I was so in-the-moment that fear never crossed my mind, while I was firing a weapon I had never fired before at actual pirates. (Holy crap, Batman!) Afterwards, the Capt. told me I'd done a good job taking out the driver of the other boat (I had no idea I had killed someone, I was just firing w/o really focusing) and then screamed at the 1st mate, calling him a "spineless coward' for throwing himself below deck, once the gun fire started and ended up firing the guy and making me 1st mate. I decide that was plenty of high sea adventure for one life and found other employment.

My brother did a genealogy on my grandmothers name "Gentry", it was traced back to Thomas Godbey Sr., who left Falmouth, England on June 8, 1609. In the voyage, the ship, the "Sea Venture", ran a ground in the Bahamas on July 28, 1609. These brave people, rebuilt a two ships from the "Sea Venture". These two ships, “The Deliverance,” and the “The Patience.” left the Bahamas on May 10, 1610 and arrived in Jamestown on May 23, 1610. Thomas's wife, Joane joined him in 1611 after arriving on the “Flying Hart”. They survived the Indian massacre of 1622 and can be found in the “Lists of the Living and Dead in Virginia Feb 16 1623. Thomas and Joane Godbey are listed again in Elizabeth City on the Virginia Muster of Jan. 20-Feb. 7, 1625. Thomas Godbey Sr was killed three years later in a bar fight by William Bentley, on the night of Feb. 8, 1628. Perhaps Thomas Godbey Sr knew some of the folks from this story...

You tell the story with such energy. It’s easy to imagine it by the way you lay it out. Thanks for another great video. Mr History Guy

Another great video and I was NOT offended by any images or narration, I hope You Tube staff weren't offended either. (lame attempt at humor)
