"Scientists said Wednesday that they have found the first solid archaeological evidence that some of the earliest American colonists at Jamestown, Va., survived harsh conditions by turning to cannibalism."

Apparently this took place during the 1609-1610 "Starving Time," but could have extended up to 1625. I had a number of ancestors at Jamestown and I know at least one of them was there in 1610 and several others arrived within the following decade.
When I toured Jamestown in 1973 (and kept the card you see here) we knew the settlers had it rough, but Jeeeeez.
