Georgia: Trustee and Royal Colony

How did the Trustee Period impact Georgia’s colonial history? Essential Question How did the Trustee Period impact Georgia’s colonial history?

Trustee Period Trustees governed Georgia from 1733 to 1752. Several ethnic groups wanted to settle in Georgia. In July 1733, a group of Jewish immigrants arrived. In 1734, a group known as Salzburgers arrived in search of religious freedom and a hope to begin a silk industry. They were Austrian Lutherans. They founded a settlement Ebenezer, but it was not well-suited to their needs. So, they moved and established New Ebenezer.

Trustee Period In January 1736, a group of 177 Scottish settlers known as the Highland Scots arrived and established a town called Darien. They are also known for their bravery and determination in battle. Immigrants also came from Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales.

Discussion Question Why would Georgia want/not want the immigrants to come settle here?

Writing Prompt Oglethorpe was so pleased with his model society that he asked his secretary (you) to write a glowing letter to King George II about the state of the colony during the current Trustee period. You describe the importance of contributions of two prominent men: Alexander, an Austrian “Salzburger” and Camden, a Highland Scot. Be sure to use evidence from your notes to support your answer.

Malcontents Some colonists were unhappy with the rules of the colony. They thought the rules kept the colony from being prosperous. The dissenters became known as malcontents. They complained about: the limits placed on buying and selling land the right to buy alcohol the ban on slavery Economics won out! By 1750, slavery was legal, land could be bought and sold, and liquor could be produced and sold.

Spanish Threat from Florida The War of Jenkins’ Ear was important to the survival of Georgia and helped Georgia serve its purpose of being a “buffer” colony. It began when a British captain, Robert Jenkins, had his ear cut off by the Spanish when they attempted to raid his ship.

Spanish Threat from Florida He took his ear to British Parliament which in turn caused the English to demand retribution. In July 1742, a Spanish force landed on St. Simons Island. They were soundly defeated by the colonists and their Native American allies in the Battle of Bloody Marsh. After this battle, Spain gave up all claims to Georgia.

Essential Question How did the Royal Period impact Georgia’s colonial history?

Georgia as a Royal Colony Georgia did not prosper as the trustees had hoped. In 1752, the trustees surrendered control of the colony; it became a royal colony. Restrictions were taken away, and Georgia began to thrive economically.

Discussion Who is now in charge of Georgia? Why?

Royal Governors John Reynolds: (1754-1756) Henry Ellis: (1757-1760) Georgia’s first royal governor Had many conflicts with the colonial legislature so he was removed by the king Henry Ellis: (1757-1760) Credited for bringing self-government to Georgia Explained the need for budget, taxes, and military defense Left due to poor health

Royal Governors James Wright: (1760-1776) Negotiated treaties with the Native Americans Georgia prospered and grew faster than any other English colony
