Jamestown Ships. These small ships—the Susan Constant, 100 tons; the Godspeed, 40 tons; and the Discovery, 20 tons are called the Jamestown Ships because they brought Captain John Smith and English colonists to Jamestown, Virginia, in 1607 to form the first English settlement in America. Exact replicas of these ships can be seen today at Festival Park in Jamestown, which has been called “the birthplace of the United States.” |
