 Is it Gosnold? Quest to Identify Jamestown Mystery Captain Continues--Historic Jamestowne
JAMESTOWN, Virginia — Without confirmation from DNA, researchers are conducting further studies to test their theory that the mysterious Jamestown Captain, who was buried 400 years ago in Jamestown, Virginia, is Capt. Bartholomew Gosnold, a founding father of America.
Led by Kelso, archaeologists at Historic Jamestowne discovered the captain's remains in 2002 during a major on-going archaeological excavation at the James Fort site conducted in preparation for the 400th anniversary of Jamestown in 2007.
Archaeologists found the burial under a pit filled with artifacts that date to the 1630s and an earlier post hole which suggests that the interment was long forgotten and was probably from the early years of the settlement.
