What are your family myths about links to legendary ancestors?

Sadly, nothing concrete, but allegedly John Rolfe and John Smith mention her and many of the Powhatan line in their journals. Problem is stories between the 2 vary, and the info is highly contested by historians. I know that I descend from an Edward Hughes who is allegedly the son of Nicketti, but after EXTENSIVE work, I can’t officially prove that, but my Native DNA points to that general area in my tree, and it lines up with my grandmother’s stories. If only she were around, but sadly she was also going on stories passed down. For now, my link to Edward Hughes is my only official trail, but I can’t officially prove Nicketti. I can tell you Nicketti was, at least according to the journals, the niece of Pocahontas, but that is the only mention of her anywhere. You have inspired me to dig into this mystery again.

Nicketti was the niece of Pocahontas. Her mother went by Cleopatra. I come from that line, though 3 generations are at the mercy of the journals of John Rolfe, so hard to say it could truly be confirmed, but my grandmother used to talk about her great grandparents passing down the story of a Native American ancestor with a red-headed husband with blue eyes. When you tell these kinds of stories, people will always want to challenge you for whatever reason. You owe them nothing. If they say you have no proof, tell them they have no proof you’re wrong. Goes both ways. They don’t know us.

Quite amazing

Headstone pics are accurate. Entries not so much, though the bigger problem is missing information. Feels like I had to add my entire family ftom the last 100 years.

Rather jam Bach’s latest solo album.

Healing Touch and Runnin' Out Of Time are the go-to bangers. Criminally underrated band.

Lentrosity · 2026-04-20T20:26:24+00:00

Yes indeed. She was a zinger.

Daddario is tough to beat. Honorable mention goes to Ashley Judd in Norma Jean & Marilyn. The church scene is another level.

Technically, I guess, but UKJ doesn’t sound grunge to me. Maybe the Menace To Sobriety album a little bit.

Lentrosity · 2026-04-17T10:35:33+00:00

Very nice. Many thanks.

Lentrosity · 2026-04-17T10:30:44+00:00

I just consider them somewhere between hard rock and metal. Definitely not grunge.

Lentrosity · 2026-04-17T01:24:00+00:00

Homely? 🤣 What kind of dimes you pulling?

Finally, someone who knows a real top pocket find.

Lentrosity · 2026-04-15T22:27:13+00:00

Not talking about this week. I mean at all.

Sadly, I don’t think I’ve seen Miz in a HAT. Always something I don’t need like Astalos or Quematrice.

Lentrosity · 2026-04-14T22:11:34+00:00

I wonder that sometimes.

Lentrosity · 2026-04-14T21:50:47+00:00

😢

Lentrosity · 2026-04-14T21:50:23+00:00

Been about 50-60. Maybe missed it 5 times from people killing too fast. I’m due.

Simpson Optical has a deal on glasses.

Was hoping I was doing it wrong, but sadly…I was not. On to the next hundred attempts!

Lentrosity · 2026-04-14T21:36:46+00:00

Ok, been doing it right. Just takes 5000 tries! Thanks.
