The Virginias was called "Land of Don Luis" by 16th century ~~Spainish~~. Brother Carrera and his [[St Augustine, Florida]] [[Jesuit]] priests were instructed to build a mission about five miles from where [[Jamestown, Virginia]] would later be built by the English. ~~Spainish~~ exploration had ordered the [[Monks]] to support the [[Virginia]] efforts. The explorers had discovered the curiosity of interior oil springs, copper outcrops, iron ore and coal for forging. All of which were located towards the [[Allegheny Mountains]].

The [[Florida]] priests built the mission Ajacan across the peninsula to the [[York River (Virginia)]]. In 1571, the ~~Spainish~~ Monks at the new mission were massacred. Historians attribute it to either the [[Powhatan]] Confederacy or [[privateers]]. Poorly documented seafaring nationals were known to fish and trade at Norfolk Anchorage. Many held [[England|English]] Papers of Privateer to raid on ~~Spainish~~ Maine. English privateers had been sailing to the [[North America]]n coast since 1562, preying on Spanish shipping loaded with royal loot from the ~~Spainish~~ Maine, [[Gulf of Mexico]]. Their provision and repair anchorage was often at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay where the easterly North Atlantic current, just north of the "Sargasas Sea" (the [[seaweed]] "beds" and drift circling in the central North Atlantic), moves towards the Irish Sea and Bay of Biscay. So, it remains unclear as to whom removed the short lived ~~Spainish~~ presence at Chesapeake Bay.
