Salzburgers, Highland Scots, and Malcontents b. Evaluate the Trustee Period of Georgia's colonial history, emphasizing the role of the Salzburgers, Highland Scots, malcontents, and the Spanish threat from Florida.

SALZBURGERS ► “The Georgia Salzburgers, a group of German- speaking Protestant colonists, founded the town of Ebenezer in what is now Effingham County. Arriving in 1734, the group received support from King George II of England and the Georgia Trustees after being expelled from its home in the Catholic principality of Salzburg (in present-day Austria). The Salzburgers survived extreme hardships in both Europe and Georgia to establish a prosperous and culturally unique community.” - New Georgia Encyclopedia

SALZBURGERS key points ► ► German-speaking Protestants who wanted religious freedom ► ► They had been expelled from Salzburg (Austria) for not being Catholic ► ► Created the town of Ebenezer, but was too swampy to survive, so Trustees allowed them to move ► ► Relocated to the town of New Ebenezer along Savannah River – became a very religious community, also had silk mills ► ► Trustees liked the hard working Salzburgers because they were also against slavery and alcohol ► ► Very successful farmers

Rincon, Georgia is where the town of New Ebenezer was located.

HIGHLAND SCOTS ► “James Oglethorpe wanted to protect the Georgia colony from possible attacks from Spanish Florida. The men of Scotland had the reputation of being good soldiers, and so Oglethorpe recruited a group of about 175 Highland Scots to settle in the area south of Savannah. The group arrived at the Altamaha River in 1736 and established a settlement they originally called New Inverness. Later, they changed the name to Darien.” - Dr. Glen Blankenship and Vicki Wood

HIGHLAND SCOTS key points ► ► Came to Georgia in 1736 from Scotland ► ► Built the town of Darien south of Savannah along the Altamaha River ► ► Reputation of hard working people who were good soldiers (recruited by Oglethorpe) ► ► Protected the Georgia colony from Spanish Florida – helped Oglethorpe push the Spanish out of Georgia in the Battle of Bloody Marsh ► ► Changed from farming to cattle raising and harvesting timber ► ► Opposed slavery in the colony

Darien: Where the Highland Scots built a fort and settlement to protect the colony from Spanish Florida.

Malcontents (“Complainers”) Most were wealthy Savannah residents who had paid their own way to Georgia. The had 3 major complaints: ► Land Restrictions–too many restrictions on selling, leasing and inheriting land, & difficulty growing what England wanted; were not able to buy thousands of acres to set up large plantations ► Slavery – Many of the crops were labor-intensive. They wanted slaves like S.C. for plantations ► Rum – Rum was cheap to buy and could be traded. They wanted to be able to make money selling it and participate in the slave trade. By some of the loudest malcontents fled to South Carolina. The discontent did not go away.
