Patawomeck Article

I thought this article was interesting specifically because of its relation to Stafford County. It is refreshing to find out that our county is not a total drag. I had heard that Pocahontas was somehow connected to Stafford but I never knew there was an Indian tribe here that played such an important part in Jamestown's success. It is unfortunate that this tribe has virtually no recognation because I think if they were given credit for their part, Stafford country residents would know much more about the Patawomecks. I hope that these people are eventually given credit and are ownership of their artifacts and such is returned to them. I at least hope that their story becomes more widely known. Stafford could use a little excitement.
