Tenngun you are correct.....The new Jamestown settlement in 1607 was a mish-mosh of tents and whatever was available for cover....and wavering between starvation and a struggling for survival with the Indians and internal frustrations for a year or two.  Captain John Smith after being jailed for dis-subordination didn't make his mark and begin to explore the area making an effort to communicate with the Indians for another year or two.  Perhaps "Tom n nc"  had a typo meaning 1640? And then, what a terrific and very rare family history Tom has!
