Hi
I am a little confused with some of the items above
Firstly the colony was not founded by Capt John Smith but by the VA company etc
Then these names seem to have inaccuracies but they might be typo errors
> County/Parish
> ARCHURS HOOP ...... I believe this should read Archers Hope
> BASSE CHOISE .... probably Ok 'proper' spelling Basse's Choice
> FLOURDIEN HUNDRED ... this should be Flourdiue hundred [or alternative spelling is flowerdew]
> GLASE HOWSE probably Ok 'proper' spelling Glass House
> JORDANS FORNEY ...... I believe this should read Jordnas Journey
