The Chesapeake: Freedom and Servitude Mr. Bach Accelerated United States History

Colonial Dichotomy In order to make the colonies work there began to be a blend of FREEDOM and SERVITUDE side-by-side.

English Migration:

Virginia House of Burgesses

James I grew hostile to Virginia  He hated tobacco.  He distrusted the House of Burgesses which he called a seminary of sedition  he revoked the charter of the bankrupt VA Company.  Thus, VA became a royal colony, under the king’s direct control! Virginia Becomes a Royal Colony

A proprietary colony (Lord Baltimore) created in A healthier location than Jamestown.  Tobacco would be the main crop. Haven for English Catholics The Settlement of Maryland

Baltimore permitted high degree of freedom of worship in order to prevent repeat of persecution of Catholics by Protestants.  High number of Protestants threatened Catholics as they became a minority Toleration Act of 1649  Supported by the Catholics in MD.  Guaranteed toleration to all CHRISTIANS.  Decreed death to those who denied the divinity of Jesus [like Jews, atheists, etc.]. A Haven for Catholics

The Toleration Act of whatsoever person or persons shall from henceforth upon any occasion of offence otherwise in a reproachfull manner or way declare call or denominate any person or persons whatsoever inhabiting, residing, traficking, trading or comercing within this province or within any ports, harbours, creeks or havens to the same belonging, an Heretick, Schismatick, Idolator, Puritan, Independent Presbyterian, Antenomian, Barrowist, Roundhead, Separatist, Popish Priest, Jesuit, Jesuited Papist, Lutheran, Calvenist, Anabaptist, Brownist or any other name or term in a reproachful manner relating to matters of Religion shall for every such offence foreit and lose the sum of ten shillings Sterling or the value thereof to be levied on the goods and chattels of every such offender and offenders... and if they could not pay, they were to be "publickly whipt and imprisoned without bail" until "he, she, or they shall satisfy the party so offended or grieved by such reproachful language...."

“Widowarchy”“Widowarchy” High mortality among husbands and fathers left many women in the Chesapeake colonies with unusual autonomy and wealth!

Indentured Servitude Headright System

Indentured Servitude Headright System:  Each Virginian got 50 acres for each person whose passage they paid. Indenture Contract:  5-7 years.  Promised “freedom dues” [land, £]  Forbidden to marry.  : only 1 in 10 outlived their indentured contracts!

Tobacco Prices: Why did tobacco prices decline so precipitously?

Freedom and Servitude: 1619 House of Burgesses Established First slave ship arrives in the American colonies
