  Note:
  BIOGRAPHY: Judith was descended from some of the first colonists to settle in Jamestown, VA. Most of these colonists were related to King James in some way. They were like his poor relatives (younger sons of their families who inherited nothing and had to make it on their own, unless they married someone with a good dowry).
  
  BIOGRAPHY: The connection to King James is through the Ferris family...Agnes Ferrier (original family name before it was changed from the French version) had an illegitimate daughter by one of the English kings back in medieval times and this daughter was known as Princess Joan. She married one of the Scottish kings and King James is her descendant, thus the Ferrises who went to Jamestown were cousins to King James.
