From the website:

Myth #1: “The First Thanksgiving” occurred in 1621.

Fact: No one knows when the “first” thanksgiving occurred. People have been giving thanks for as long as people have existed
=================

And that, folks, is a learned individual talking.

Don't have to read much more except for the humor value.

The settlers in Jamestowne held a Thanksgiving feast a lot earlier than 1621! They just didn’t have as good a PR firm as the folks who later came to Pli-mouth Colony.
