Her funeral took place on March 21, 1617 in the parish of Saint George's, Gravesend. Her memory is recorded in Gravesend with a life-size bronze statue at St George's Church.

I believe she was buried in England.

According to Wikipedia:

"Her funeral took place on March 21, 1617 in the parish of Saint George's, Gravesend. Her memory is recorded in Gravesend with a life-size bronze statue at St George's Church."

In March 1617, the Rolfes prepared to leave London on Argall’s ship the "George". They were to return with Virginia’s Governor and his family. At this stage Pocahontas’ health was deteriorating. She was suffering from tuberculosis, to which the Indians appeared rather prone. Pocahontas was brought ashore at Gravesend, either dead or dying. She is thought to have been buried in the vault beneath the chancel of the local parish church - St. George’s. Her son, Thomas returned to Virginia where he is understood to have numerous descendants. The original church was destroyed by fire on 24th August 1727 and later rebuilt.

1617 Princess Pocohontas, the first North American Indian Christian, who had been received at the Court of King James, died as she began her return journey to Virginia and was buried in the chancel of St. George’s Church in Gravesend on the 21st of March 1617. The church was built about 1485 and was destroyed by fire in 1727. It was rebuilt in 1732.

Some of the foregoing and following facts are to serve as a guideline to our Wynne family’s place in history although not directly related to Pocohontas'family.

A statute of Pocohontas, a replica of that in Jamestown, was unveiled by the Governor of Virginia in 1958. This replica stands in the Princess Pocohontas Gardens in the church yard of St. George’s
This is a copy of the burial register of Pocohontas: “May 1616. Rebecca Wrothe, wyffe of Thomas Wrothe, gent. A Virginia Lady borne, was buried in ye Chauncell.”

I heard a long time ago that it was Gravesend. I think there is a stained glass window celebrating her

She was buried just outside Heathrow, she came in on a flight from Russia and she felt very perculiar when she landed, almost as if she had been poisoned and low and behold, she bit the dust just outside the airport and is now buried there in a lead lined coffin
