Martha W. McCartney
Research Historian and Author of
Virginia Immigrants and Adventurers, 1607-1635:   A Biographical Dictionary

Martha McCartney is the preeminent historian of the people of Jamestown. Her newest book on Jamestown will have just been published when she meets with us in October.  This book will include biographical data on residents and all who came to Jamestown on public business, such as service as a Burgess, through 1699 when the capital was moved to Williamsburg.  She is the author of four books and many published articles and reports.  Her book, Jamestown Island: An American Legacy was chosen by the National Park Service as “best in field”.  McCartney’s positions have included serving as a scholar for the Virginia Research Center for Archaeology and a consultant to the Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation and the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation.  Her meticulous research puts flesh on genealogical data.

The Regency Club is an elegant, private retreat high above the West Side of Los Angeles with views from downtown to the ocean and mountains.
