Dear listers:  I'm trying to locate if possible a site that was
connected with Pocahontas in popular memory in the early 19th century
(at least, that's the date of my source).  It was a large conical stone
known as Pocahontas's Basin -- the basin was apparently scooped out on
one side of the cone.  According to my source (in the Southern Literary
Messenger vol 4 (1838), it was within the limits of Petersburg on the
north bank of the Appomattox.  Any help -- and any other references to
historical sites connected with Pocahontas -- will be appreciated!!
