Colonial Reactions

Origins: Indentured servants and small-time planters move into western Virginia’s frontier Conflict #1: Native Americans attack planters’ homes Planters retaliate, and ask for aid (supplies and troops) to drive off the Indians Conflict #2: Governor Berkeley refuses to provide aid (He does not want to escalate trouble with the natives) Nathaniel Bacon perceives the gov’t as both aristocratic and ignoring the needs of the lower classes Action: Bacon and several hundred settlers march on Jamestown and burn parts of town Gov. Berkeley flees back to England Bacon’s Rebellion

Bacon’s Rebellion Outcome: Bacon dies of disease; the rebellion falls apart; a number of followers are punished and executed The Crown replaces Berkeley as governor, yet the colonial assembly, the House of Burgesses, maintains power Legacy: First armed rebellion of colonists against their own government Displays a growing class tension between the upper and lower classes

Stono Rebellion -Slave uprising in South Carolina in 1739 -Blacks outnumbered whites 10:1 -Dozens of plantation owners and their families killed -Rebels rounded up and executed -Led to strict measures about slave numbers/imports -Whites lived in constant fear of uprisings

Increase Mather
