Was Pocahontas an Iroquois?

The short answer is no, not really.Pocahontas was from a nation of Indians, the Powhatan. It was composed of tribes which spoke an Algonquian language. That quia in the word is important it denotes a family of related languages. The Europeans encountered a tribe called Algonquin. They latter encountered tribes that spoke similar languages. Powhatan was just such a similar language.To make things more complicated the term "Algonquin Indian" has come to denote practically any Indian nation of the eastern woodlands that spoke an Algonquian language. This is not technically correct but it is very common.So to review.Pocahontas was not an Algonquin indian.The Powhatan spoke a language that was a member of the Algonquian language family.
