A program that discusses the findings of the Jamestown Rediscovery archaeological project ten years after the discovery of the original 1607 Jamestown Fort.
My great ? grandfather went to James City in 1638 from Wales/England. He was an indentured servant and ended up doing pretty well for himself. His name was Edward Ellis and along with his son Jeremiah (who became the under sheriff) farmed tobacco and ended up fighting in Bacon's rebellion. They are buried in the Ellis Cemetery. I would love to go there.
Visiting in 2005 and returning back several months later to watch for several weeks the transparency and integrity of this project is second to none. This video captures much of that timeframe. I encourage everyone sincere to visit. Also the Books by Jamestown Rediscovery, Dr. Kelso and others are a great resource. Godspeed!
Thank you for your appreciation of the project and our documentation in this video. Cinebar spent 15 years working with the archaeological team, recording key moments big and small in the process.
I have a great grandfather several generations ago that was with them on May 14, 1607. His name was Andrew Buckler. Now for some reason his name isn’t one of the 104. But other things I’ve read say that he was good friends with Captain John Smith. We know that Captain John Smith went to Weromocco village to meet chief Powhatan. He took four men with him and my great grandpa was one of them. He got to meet Pocahontas during that visit. Now he’s the only famous Buckler I have found. But what a great spot to be at just the right time. Most history says there was 104 men. Others say 144. Andrew is part of the 144 list. Documents say he was a ‘master’. Which means he charted course from the stars moon. Cool yet again!! Finally I want to say, what mad men!! To take four buddies and hike into a Indian village asking for food… I know they did it to help the group who was starving. Still had to be Nuts. Andrew left America and went back to Dorset England as he inherited land and an estate from his brother who was a knight for the Queen of England. One of the Elizabeth’s. His Grandson Steven came back and settled here in America. And bam! Here is my family still.
Andrew left America in August Or September of 1609. Just before what we know as the starving time. I believe CPT. John Smith left at the same time as he was injured in a black powder explosion while in a canoe. Figured I might as well finish the details. Good day.
Awesome! What a cool account THANK YOU ! and the fact that you have the genealogy to all the way back then. This is going to help my daughter with her history right now! Thank you so much, add more details if you want.😉
@@douglasbuckler8934 Are the documents for your ancestor’s movements available? I’m trying to piece together my early ancestors movements and he may have been with yours.
I visited Jamestown in the early 1980's with my parents. At that time the tour guides asserted that the fort site had washed into the river. Imagine my surprise, many years later to find that the fort site was nearly intact! I want to go back one day and see all the things that have been found over the last 4 decades...
I am not sure they found the original site of Jamestown, they did find artifacts from that period. Jamestown was burned more than once, and I am not seeing any charcoal left of these events. There were many people that traveled that area and Items were dropped and lost. What they found that I can see is just a high trafficking area.
During this time the Spanish all ready had permanent outpost south and west in America. The Dutch and French had outposts east of the Great Lakes . The English were last in settling America
THANK YOU for including the French in North America, first settled by Champlain in 1604 at Quebec City (THE ONLY WALLED CITY IN N.A.) , containing Louisiana and other states. The St Lawrence Seaway was explored much earlier as well. Then we have, still have, The Hudson’s Bay Company.
First Germans arrived aboard the vessel Mary and Margaret about October 1st, 1608. They were glassmakers and carpenters. In 1620, German mineral specialists and saw-millwrights followed, to work and settle in Jamestown.
Many artifacts were found in wells. Wells, when they dried up, became garbage pits. So all kinds of things were found in the wells. And yes there is plenty of evidence of what was eaten through bones, etc. Even fish scales were found and counted. When the starving time came during the winter of 1609-1610 the settlers were eating snakes, rats, cats, dogs, horses and eventually other dead humans. The myth of cannibalism, became fact when mass graves were found and bones analyzed which corroborated the myth of cannibalism.
Where the USA was born? The country wasn't called the USA back then, it was called New England................. The name America didn't evolve until years later.......
The script was passed to numerous scholars for approval. In the opening, the narrator states, that this is the site where the United States was born. He does not say that it was called the United States then. The Spanish had been through here, but did not stay, and Roanoke had been founded and then lost. And so, Jamestown was the first permanent settlement of English North America. This area was never called New England. At the time the settlement was simply named Jamestown, for the king. Before there was ever a New England, this land was named Virginia, after the Virgin Queen, Elizabeth I. The concept of colonies was long in the future.
The United States as a polity happened in 1776, not in 1607. It was (new) dominion land of england that would later become the US, inheriting continuity from england, common law legal system etc.
Actually, it was called “the Americas” during Queen Elizabeth’s reign which didn’t end until 1603. Jamestown was settled four years later. Roanoke had happened in the latter 1500s and even tobacco had been brought back to England. And it was already called America. Jamestown was never, ever called New England. Ever. Virginia has been very proud of its name since Sir Walter Raleigh named it after Queen Elizabeth I. She was known as the “virgin queen.”
What about the Puritans? Puritans were English Protestants who were committed to "purifying" the Church of England by eliminating all aspects of Catholicism from religious practices. English Puritans founded the colony of Plymouth to practice their own brand of Protestantism without interference.
The script was passed to numerous scholars for approval. In the opening, the narrator states, that this is the site where the United States was born. He does not say that it was called the United States then. The Spanish had been through here, but did not stay, and Roanoke had been founded and then lost. And so, Jamestown was the first permanent settlement of English North America. At the time the settlement was simply named Jamestown, for the king. Before there was ever a New England, this land was named Virginia, after the Virgin Queen, Elizabeth I. Quite simply the United States government is firmly rooted in English law. The majority of the people here speak English. After the defeat of the Spanish Armada, Spain's power throughout the world diminished considerably.
I'm keenly interested in the subject, but am put off by the loud music competing with every spokeman's voice. Also, I'm a bit offended by the willful erroneous claim that Jamestown was the birthplace of the USA. That is bull hockey. Jamestown was just one more British imperialistic effort to take over the indigenous people's land, resources and wealth. It was an effort to colonize and expand the British empire.

And so, Jamestown was the first permanent settlement of English North America. We speak English. Our government is based on English law. At the time, England, Spain, Portugal and the Dutch were all endeavoring to claim newly discovered lands. Jamestowne, as stated in the documentary, was an economic endeavor on the part of the London Company of England. It was founded to make money. The concept of colonization did not exist in 1607. The intent of colonization came in 1619, not before.
Linda Lee "Just one more Imperialistic effort to take over the Indians land!??" No! Not accurate! That's not what their purpose was!!! No colonies yet! The Turks don't hear about The Ottoman Empire constantly! Why is it that European and only European people and descendants are constantly reminded of their past?? Certainly not because we were doing anything that was not done before!! Must be the White thing. I'm white and I feel no guilt over my European historical past! We have, however, accomplished what no one else did .... and that is the United States of America!
I wonder how many people know that around half of the Pilgrims had Anglo-Jewish ancestry(mainly going back to the Jews who went to England with William the Conqueror as he promised them lands and nobility for their funding of his war against England. There were "many" of these rich Jews/Jewish families who´s descendants made up many of the noble families in England and Scotland. Even though many of them/their descendants converted to Christianity(at least outwardly) they still often married other Anglo-Jewish peoples. My white Christian American great grandfather was the first Anglo-Jew of his mother´s family line to marry a non Jewish woman of Irish ancestry. They had been Christians for centuries but his mother´s family lines had just about always married other people with Anglo-Jewish ancestry. I think most Americans with Anglo-Jewish ancestry eventually forgot about their Jewish ancestry in the last 150 years or so. They were almost all "white Christians" anyways. Just because a surname sounds British doesn´t mean that it isn´t a Jewish surname. These are some Anglo-Jewish surnames(I believe I have every one of them in my own ancestry, and in fact my maternal ancestor was also of Jewish ancestry which makes me Jewish by their laws(I am a Christian though:): Barrett, Barnett, Cole, Clark, FitzAlan, MacLeod(Trump´s mother is from a Sephardic Jewish Scottish clan), McIntosh, McDonald, McPherson, Denny, Devereux, Leslie, Livingston, Talliaferro(Italian and Spanish Sephardic surname), Neville, Rhoads, May, Day, Bruce, Wallace, Stewart, King, Alden, Southworth, and many more(More is also and can even be from Moor). But the Pilgrims were almost all Christians and they were people of great faith and mainly came to America "For the advancement of the Christian Faith" and to worship God as they believed was right. They didn´t come to steal anything and besides America is the Zion of Bible prophecy and God was going to give it to the true Israel people=and He has!!! The Pilgrims and Founding Fathers all knew they were the Israel people(some were of Jewish stock, yes, but the others were of the Northern Tribes and they kne America was Zion and called it "Joseph´s land" because it is his son Manasseh´s one great nation and his tribal symbol is a fruitful branch and 13 arrows!!!! It is the true regathering of people from all 13 Tribes of Israel into one nation under God(E Pluribus Unum="Out of many TRIBES one!") BUT since founding the true nation BORN in a day we white Christians have turned away from God and His Laws and now we are receiving EVERY punishment that God puts on the Israel people when they are in disobedience! We must REPENT NATIONALLY(as all Israel) and until we do that our antichrist enemies will keep getting more powerful and richer and we will get poorer and loose any political power until we become slaves in the land our forefathers conquered-Ben Franklin mentioned that possibility if America allowed a usury economic debt system!!
"First permanent settlement..."-Narrator...and by whom? Seems to me there had been "permanent settlements" in the Americas for centuries if not for many millennia...anyway, on with the brainwash...cheers.

Visited Jamestown several years ago. Talk about history coming alive!
Rev. Robert Hunt is my many times great grandfather. Thank you for this documentary.

Fascinating. Thank you
MY RELATIVE WAS THERE IN 1608 DANIEL STALLINGS CAME OVER ON 2ND SUPPLY SHIP
Wow without him there wouldn’t bea you. Wonder if they understood how significant it was
Great video!
Thank you 💚
Thank you!
Thank you!
That Belamine flask in the well was a nice find!
Excellent.
Thank you!
Awesome 👏.
They thought they would find gold , they didn t find a way to stay alive
Any canon's could have been floated away to another location, or even mounted on a ship.
My 9th great-father, John Claye, came to Jamestowne, or James City in 1613. Settled in Jordan's Journey area.
Oh, so that's why it's called James City County, where I live.
11:28 Someone picks up an intact Bartmann jug aka a bellarmine jug, aaaaand the narrator says nothing about it.
I wonder why there were no personal effects or clothing you think there would be something left very interesting video
Wow.
Tim Phillips knows what he’s talking about.

Where is a list of the surnames who were at Jamestown?
All you gotta do is search! smh
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Jamestown_colonists
My relative William farrar was on Neptune ship Just recently found out
What do Christopher Newport, commander of the Jamestown expedition, and Christopher Jones, Master of the Mayflower, have in common?
They both were nicknamed Chris?
Then one they call JR, I remember seeing that skeleton back in 02.
Sad few people watch this, apparently little interest in history
Where is Captain Hubert Ferrell buried?
My relatives was three brothers that was from Germany
First Germans arrived aboard the vessel Mary and Margaret about October 1st, 1608. They were glassmakers and carpenters. In 1620, German mineral specialists and saw-millwrights followed, to work and settle in Jamestown.
the US was settled by plenty of Germans.
who the hell designs windows on the foundation?
Did they find any of their sewage, what they ate etc.
Many artifacts were found in wells. Wells, when they dried up, became garbage pits. So all kinds of things were found in the wells.

St. Augustine, Fla in 1560s was the birthplace of America. Is there bias, here?

This is about the English USA.
This is about the people that eventually conquered and made laws and flourished here.
You may want to ask a different question.
Whose birthplace???
The United States was born in Independence Hall in Philadelphia.
Misleading people is no way for a documentary to be written.
Good grief. Study more history.
