	Nansemond History (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-15)
		The Nansemond Indians originally lived along the Nansemond River and were part of the empire (not a confederacy) ruled by Powhatan, the father of Pocahontas.
		The Christianized Nansemonds remained on the Nansemond River and became English-style farmers, though they retained their love of hunting and fishing and still called themselves "Nansemonds." The other Nansemonds warred with the English in 1644, fled southwest to the Nottoway River, and had a reservation assigned them there by the Virginia colony.
		And in the 1830's, when Virginia enacted repressive laws against non-whites, the Nansemonds got their Delegate to have a law passed so that they could be specially certified as Indian descendants, exempt from the discriminatory laws.
