11. Selected image: page 110. Source: "Pocahontas and Thomas Rolfe." (The Sedgeford Hall portrait) c. 1750-1800. (Robert S. Tilton, Pocahontas: The Evolution of an American Narrative. Cambridge: Cambridge UP, 1994. 110.) May not be Pocahontas and Thomas. See Tilton 1994 (108, 110). Thomas would not have been this old when Pocahontas died. Someone has suggested that the woman might be one of the Indian women who came to London with Pocahontas and stayed on (see 1621). Sedgeford Hall is a property of the Rolfe family in England.
