Historian Mark Summers gives a lecture in the Memorial Church.

Before the Rebellion

Location: Memorial Church

Join public historian Mark Summers for a lecture that will discuss the events, in both England and Virginia, that led to the conflict that tore Virginia apart between 1675 and 1677. Mark will examine the many sides of the conflict, including Virginia loyalists, indentured servants, enslaved Africans, Virginia Indians, and those who switched sides. This program will lead directly into “The Burning of Jamestown,” an immersive walking tour led by Thomas Mathew, on whose property the rebellion began and may have played both sides of the fight.

Included with paid admission to the Preservation Virginia portion of Historic Jamestowne.
