Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Large Size 8 1/2" x 11" Softback Book - "James Watkins And His Descendants" by William A. Hinson, copyright 2017. James Watkins (1565-1623) the son of Francis Watkins (1535-1571) and Elizabeth Lee Watkins (1543- ) a carpenter & soldier, in Talgarth, Breconshire (Brecknockshire), Wales, arrived on HMS "Phoenix" to the Colony of Virginia last from London, England on April 20, 1608. James Watkins name is on the list of passengers on the first supply ship arriving at Jamestown on April 20, 1608. He is listed as a laborer. His name does not appear in the 1623 census list. As a soldier, James Watkins is mentioned on two occasions. First, in June of the same year of his arrival, he accompanied Captain John Smith on his first expedition up the Potomac River. Second, while on Captain Smith's second expedition along the Rappahannock River, Smith's group were threatened by Indians on shore. At that time, an Indian who was being held hostage on the ship jumped overboard in an attempt to escape. James, who had been told to guard the hostage, shot the Indian. It does not state whether he killed the Indian or not, but, it appears that he did.Captain John Smith founder of the Jamestown colony in 1607. Smith named Watkins Point (near Jamestown on the Eastern Shore) for James Watkins who accompanied him on his expedition, which was in 1608. He was a member of the first surveying party of Captain John Smith, of the Jamestown Colony in Virginia. There is a statue of James Watkins located at the original site of the Jamestown Fort, listing dates and his occupation as a carpenter.National Park Service Historical Narrative: 1624...John Smith's First Chesapeake Bay Voyage.

But the grazing of our bullets upon the water (many being shot on purpose they might see them) with the echo of the woods so amazed them asdown went their bows and arrows; and exchanging hostages, James Watkins was sent six miles up the woods to their king's habitation. We were kindly used of those savages of whom we understood they were commanded to betray us, by the direction of Powhatan; and he so directed from the discontented at Jamestown because our captain did cause them stay in their country against their wills..."This book is about James Watkins and his many descendants who built a new life in a new world.

CHAPTER VII OUR SPRINGTIME HE early days of March bring to southern Ohio freeze and thaw in close succession.

It was during the visit of Cousin Mary Jane Skinner and a rainy afternoon when our parents decided to fulfil a promise to us of some standing. This took us children, then three in number, and Cousin Mary Jane to spend the night at our neighbor VanZandt's. It was something out of the ordinary for us to make a visit of this duration.

It took but a moment for us to get on our coats and wraps and start for home. The rain of the day before had been checked by a cold wave; the mud had frozen and the walking was very rough. Our eagerness to see the little sister sent us with all haste down the road, breaking through the deep horse tracks, mud and water flying over shoes and stockings and up on coats and dresses; but what cared we -- a wonder and a gladness awaited us at home! Upon the arrival we found some good neighbor women still lingering and ministering to our mother. Julia Bruin, as nurse, gave signals indicating that we were to keep quiet as we neared the door of mother's room. We went in on tiptoe, to find mother in the "big high bed" and little sister in the rocking chair on a pillow. Here we three, Will and little Joe and I, knelt down as close to the baby as we could get to wonder and admire. First we looked into the...
