Good Afternoon,

Does anyone have information on The Ship *Fortune* that brought 100
enslaved people into Jamestown is 1628 and they were sold for tobacco.

I have been able to find a few referenced articles by Alden T. Vaughan:
Blacks in Virginia.  He sources the Virginia Historical Society, Richmond,
MS2y327a and (Va. Col. Rec. Proj.) H.C.A, 13/17. P.R.O.

Thank you for any help you can provide.
