Yeardley Smith What you know her from: More like “what you know her voice from.”
Captain Yeardley, deputy governor, lived here for the most part.
Yeardley promised to do what he could with this company since he had found "an excellent water and good oare."
For my own part, I knew Yeardley too well to attempt any; moreover, had I been in his place, his course should have been mine.
Yeardley's instructions in 1618 carried the order to locate a suitable place for a university in the Henrico area.
There must have been rejoicing in Virginia when Yeardley arrived with orders "for the better establishing a commonwealth."
