Wanted to protect Georgia from Spanish Florida Oglethorpe recruited 175 Highland Scots to settle in area south of Savannah Arrived at Altamaha River in1736 Established settlement originally called New Inverness Later, changed name to Darien

6 Darien the only Gaelic speaking settlement in Georgia
Kept many of their culture’s traditions Family clans Wearing kilts Hard workers Darien soil not good for farming, started raising cattle & harvesting timber 1739 Darien leaders signed petition asking that slavery not be introduced

Mulberry trees – wrong kind for producing large amounts of silk Couldn’t grow hemp, flax, indigo (plant used to make blue dyes), or grapes for wine South Carolina, had large amounts of land, slaves, & rum, were doing well S.C. – growing rice, cotton, and tobacco, success was due to use of slave labor
