I do believe this group is related to CSA Col John Esten Cooke, Hunter John Myers and Revolutionary General George Rogers Clark who was William Clark's brother of Lewis and Clark Expedition out of Pittsburgh in 1803. That is if you believe both the Mayflower and Godspeed of Jamestown are connected in some way.
These families are acting as if Chief King Phillip and Pocahontas are related.There are some records that suggest that both the tribe of King Phillip and the Tribe of Pocahontas were in England at the same time.
I believe my connection is through Edwin Dody.The migration of the Dody family seems to be from Boston to Pittsburgh to Santa Barbara California. There is a small town in Pittsburgh called South Boston and for years people have said it's was named after the same Boston family of Boston MA.If so, then those Bostons are buried in the Lewis and Clark lot in Pittsburgh.
