Life in Chesapeake Shorter life span due to spread of disease ½ people did not live until 20 Few people had grandparents unlike New England Colonies Tobacco exhausted land, -> people move west -> Native American land -> conflict More tobacco = more land Indentured Servants Paid passage in exchange for several years service Headright System 50 acres of land to whoever (plantation owner) pays the passage of an immigrant (indentured servant) Who does this benefit? Why?

Bacon’s Rebellion (Virginia) Event Bacon’s crew goes on a killing spree of Natives, burns down Jamestown Causes More and more settlers didn’t have land (indentured servants, immigrants from Headright system) Governor William Berkeley too friendly Native Americans, angers settlers Effects A new labor force- slaves from Africa. Why? Significance: Shows class tensions between rich and poor

Middle Passage Part of the journey on the triangular trade 20% of captives died on this part of the journey Tight living quarters

Africans in America Contd: Rebellions did occur, although not frequently Why? New York City (1712): Dozen whites are killed in rebellion, 21 blacks were executed Stono River Uprising (South Carolina –1739) 50 blacks rebelled and tried to go to Spanish Florida, stopped by militia *****No slave revolt in history matched the scale of Bacon’s Rebellion****

The New England Family Towns = more families living closer Education is of great importance; 50 families = mandated schools Clean water and cool temperature slowed the spread of killer diseases Life expectancy is higher, immigrants added 10 years to their lives Longer life expectancy = closer-knit families Population increased from procreation, not just immigration Women gave up property rights when marries

The Half-way covenant and the Salem Witch Trials Half Way Covenant – increased membership, but sacrificed religious purity Increase in membership separates “elect” from members of society Salem Witch Trials Most of the accused were from merchant class making $; accusers were mostly farmers Illustrates tensions between rich and poor

That’s It!
