First American Colonies

Motivation to Move Rise in Middle class More people with more money, investing in Joint Stock Company (company where investors buy stock in return for future profit) Companies funded colonies in New World Surplus population Too many people in Europe, many are poor and in debt looking for new life Religious Freedom People were persecuted if their beliefs differed from “norm” (Reformation)

Jamestown A charter (written permission from the King to start a colony; King has distant control) was given to the Virginia Company Joint Stock Company Virginia Company settles the colony of Jamestown

Jamestown Struggles Motive for Virginia company is to make money Search for Resources: Gold and other metals No one planted or built good shelter They were unprepared for harsh conditions John Smith forced colonists to farm and build structures to live

Discussion What are the three motivations for settlers moving to the New World? Who funded the Jamestown colony? How might that impact their goals? What do you believe would happen to Jamestown without John Smith?

Trouble and Success Smith received help from the local native peoples, the Powhatan When Smith returns to Britain and the Powhatan stop helping, colonists begin to starve “Starving time”- Jamestown starved Jamestown survives and expands

Expansion of Jamestown Pocahontas (a Powhatan) marries John Rolfe and attempt to unite the colonists and natives John Rolfe found way to cure tobacco. Tobacco becomes Jamestown’s “gold” Virginia Company begins giving land to English people willing to stay in colonies

Reflection What were the 3 primary motivations behind people moving to the New World? How may the actions of people with different motivations impact the colonies?
