NOTE: I am just beginning to try to sort this out and it is really confusing with the different revisions which each have different re-print years. I may have made mistakes. Please comment if you see any. I'm sorting thru - Sept 2024 - and when I am done I will do a double check. So stay tuned to updates!
Since I am studying Virginia history I can't really get away from doing research on Matoaka even though there have been a thousand books written about her and I can't read them all. I am going to start by sorting out the first (?) book about her genealogy - below - there have been updates and different versions published since the original and I will sort that out here.

The Pocahontas Foundation, based upon information furnished to it, has compiled a tentative list of the descendants of Pocahontas, a list set forth in Pocahontas' Descendants. This present volume, the third involving additions and corrections to the existing work, contains more than 120 pages of changes and revisions, with a forty-page index of 6,500 names. The name of the spouse of a Pocahontas descendant is listed even though that spouse is not a descendant of Pocahontas, but the name of a parent of such a spouse is not indexed unless, of course, that parent is a descendant of Pocahontas as well. This new volume is an indispensable adjunct to contemporary Pocahontas scholarship.
