John Smith to the Rescue Became the leader of Jamestown in 1608 Announced “He that will not work shall not eat.” Made friends with the Powhatan Indian tribe and Chief Powhatan Built a fort around Jamestown to protect from unfriendly Indians.

Tobacco Changes Jamestown In 1612, John Rolfe developed a type of tobacco that could grow in Jamestown Colony made money by selling tobacco to England The Virginia Company allowed settlers to own land.

Tobacco Changes Jamestown Indentured servants (people who sold their labor in exchange for passage to America) moved to America English brought African slaves to work on tobacco plantations

Conflicts with the Powhatans At first, Powhatan traded food with colonists 1622 Powhatan Indians killed hundreds of Jamestown residents for taking their land. John Rolfe marries Chief Powhatan’s daughter Pocahontas (daughter of Chief Powhatan and peacemaker between Indians and colonists)

House of Burgesses Colonists angry with the strict rule of the Virginia Co. of London. First representative assembly in the American colonies Elected representatives would provide control and resolve issues in Virginia. Representatives meet once a year in an assembly

Bacon’s Rebellion in 1676 Nathaniel Bacon was an upset citizen of Jamestown. Two reasons Nathaniel Bacon and followers were angry at Governor Berkley: 1. His failure to protect Jamestown from Indian attacks 2. Governor liked the wealthy, high taxes, and low tobacco prices.

Bacon’s Rebellion in 1676 (continued…) Bacon and his followers took control of the House of Burgesses and burned Jamestown to the ground Governor Berkley hung Bacon’s followers and Berkley was sent back to England After the Rebellion, the House of Burgesses passed a law preventing a royal governor from assuming so much power.
