You died in this estuary town

On your return voyage

Miles from your original home

 

The location of your grave is unknown

As your father’s church was consumed by flames

Only your statue remains

 

Everybody visits you

But few remember you

 

 

There is a life size statue of Pocahontas at Saint George’s Church in Gravesend Kent

Pocahontas was buried here after her death in 1617

The exact location of her grave is unknown as the original church was destroyed by fire in 1627

She is thought to have been buried underneath the chancel of the church
