Cornell Set Up Middle and Southern Colonies How did the Middle Colonies develop America?

New York Originally established by the Dutch and known as New Amsterdam New Amsterdam became a thriving port. English took over and renamed New Amsterdam, New York in 1664.

New York Think Critically!! Why do you think the Colony at New Netherlands was seized by England, renamed New York and thrived and grew?

Pennsylvania Founded by a Quaker, William Penn Land given to him by King Charles to repay a debt Pennsylvania was established for Quakers to practices freely (Quakers are pacifists) W. Penn wanted fair treatment of Native Americans Farming thrived in Pennsylvania Penn wrote first colonial constitution and established a legislature

New Jersey Established on land that was previously part of New York Named after the island of Jersey in the English channel Had no natural deep water harbors Not as successful as the New York colony Think Critically!! Why do you think New Jersey wasn’t as successful as New York?

Delaware Swedes settled in lower Pennsylvania Charter of Privileges allowed them to stay there They were granted their own legislature which later became its own entity. Delaware operated under the governor of Pennsylvania

Southern Colonies

Maryland Dream of Sir George Calvert, Lord Baltimore Place for Catholics to worship freely Large estates established requiring workers (indentured servants and slaves) Calvert and Penn families argued over PA/MD border (Mason-Dixon Line)

Virginia Virginia continued to grow since 1607 Slaves started arriving in 1619 Governor William Berkley agreed to with Native Americans that settlers would not expand westward 1676 Nathanial Bacon disobeyed agreement and led attacks against Natives

The Carolinas Originally one colony Carolina – Latin for “Charles land” John Locke wrote a constitution or plan of government and argued about the “rights of man” Not developing as planned Carolina split into two separate colonies (north and south) Crops grew well (Tobacco, rice, lumber, indigo)

Georgia Established as a colony for debtors to start fresh Thought of as a “buffer” between British colonies and Spanish held Florida. Georgia grew slowly as more poor Europeans came Georgia was turned over to royal control in 1751

Growth of the Southern Colonies Maryland Safe place for Catholics Saw growth in plantations and influx of slaves and indentured servants. Virginia Oldest settlement Steady growth and westward expansion Rebellion against governor Carolinas Split Strong agricultural growth Georgia You tell me!!!
