3 2.4 Beginnings of English America
The Uprising of 1622 Once the English decided on a permanent colony instead of merely a trading post, conflict was inevitable. Opechancanough led an attack on Virginia's settlers in 1622. Through a treaty, the English forced Indians to recognize their subordination to the government at Jamestown and moved them onto reservations. The Virginia Company surrendered its charter to the crown in 1624. A Tobacco Colony Tobacco was Virginia's substitute for gold. The expansion of tobacco production led to an increased demand for field labor. Women and the Family Virginian society lacked a stable family life. Social conditions opened the door to roles women rarely assumed in England. The Maryland Experiment Maryland was established in 1632 as a proprietary colony under Cecilius Calvert. The charter granted Calvert "full, free, and absolute power." Religion in Maryland Calvert envisioned Maryland as a refuge for persecuted Catholics. Most appointed officials initially were Catholic, but Protestants always outnumbered Catholics in the colony.

4 Although it had a high death rate, Maryland offered servants greater opportunity for land ownership than Virginia. The New England Way The Rise of Puritanism Puritanism emerged from the Protestant Reformation in England. Puritans believed that the Church of England retained too many elements of Catholicism. Puritans considered religious belief a complex and demanding matter, urging believers to seek the truth by reading the Bible and listening to sermons. Puritans followed the teachings of John Calvin. Moral Liberty Many Puritans immigrated to the New World in hopes of establishing a Bible Commonwealth that would eventually influence England. They came to America in search of liberty and the right to worship and govern themselves. Puritans were governed by a "moral" liberty, "a liberty to that only which is good," which was compatible with severe restraints on speech, religion, and personal behavior. The Pilgrims at Plymouth Pilgrims sailed in 1620 to Cape Cod aboard the Mayflower. Before going ashore, the adult men signed the Mayflower Compact, the first written frame of government in what is now the United States. Local Indians provided much valuable help to the Pilgrims and the first Thanksgiving was celebrated in 1621.

5 The Great Migration The Massachusetts Bay Company was charted in 1629 by London merchants wanting to further the Puritan cause and to turn a profit from trade with the Indians. New England settlement was very different from settlement in the Chesapeake colonies. New England had a more equal balance of men and women. New England enjoyed a healthier climate. New England had more families. The Puritan Family Puritans reproduced the family structure of England with men at the head of the household. Women were allowed full church membership and divorce was legal, but a woman was expected to obey her husband fully. Government and Society in Massachusetts Massachusetts was organized into self-governing towns. Each town had a Congregational Church and a school. To train an educated ministry, Harvard College was established in 1636. The freemen of Massachusetts elected their governor. Puritan democracy was for those within the circle of church members. Puritan Liberties Puritans defined liberties by social rank, producing a rigid hierarchal society justified by God's will. The Body of Liberties affirmed the rights of free speech and assembly and equal protection for all. Although ministers were forbidden to hold office in Massachusetts, church and state were closely interconnected.

O- Objects: What objects do you see? Overall impressions? P- People: What/Who do you see? Any Predictions? T- Time Period/Title (if included): What time period does the visual represent? I-Inferences: What inferences can you draw based on this source? C- Conclusions: What conclusions can you draw based on the source? S-Significance: Why is this source important? What makes it stand out?
