I am seeking information on descendants of Pocahontas, specifically the Randolph line to see if there's a connection between them and one of my ancestors, Alice Randolph. It was written in our family bible that she is a descendant of Pocahontas but so far I haven't been able to verify the lineage. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated!

I'm not sure how much of your family history you have already, so I don't know how much this will help....
Have you tried the free trial at Ancestry.com? I thought one of my ancestors was a Randolph and they turned out to be Fitz Randolph.
Also, have you thought of checking out the local Mormon library? I'm not Mormon, but they helped me quite a bit while I was starting out.
It would probably ne easiest to work your way backwards from you. I tried jumping in where I thought it was interesting and it DID NOT work.
Hope this helps. :)

Thanks you for responding!
I've been working on the family tree for a couple of years now so I've gotten a good portion of at least one branch of my ancestors. Well, actually that depends on one's definition of 'a good portion'. There's still tons of missing people and other branches I need to research lol.
I've looked on Ancestry, Rootsweb, the Latter Day Saints genealogy website and others. So far, the only definitive answers are in published books but I haven't been able to get those yet.
