7. High mortality rate –1609-10 = The Starving Time Poor location - swampy Diseases – malaria Indian attacks –Jamestown settlement in Powhatan Indian territory Own mistakes –Most settlers were younger sons of noble men; few useful skills, spent early months hunting for gold

15. Causes: –Unhealthy climate, high mortality rate due to disease and Indian attacks, gender imbalance Problem: –Tobacco is a labor intensive crop Solution: –Indentured servitude –Headright System: granted 50 acres to any immigrant who pays his own passage or to any plantation owner who pays an immigrants passage

16. 1660s  low tobacco prices caused by overproduction House of Burgesses tried to raise tobacco prices London merchants retaliated by raising their own prices on goods exported to VA –Needs of motherland supersede needs of colony

17. Nathaniel Bacon Gov. William Berkeley Berkley adopted policies that favored the large eastern planters and used dictatorial powers to govern This antagonized western backwoods farmers like Bacon who felt the governor was not protecting their interests (wanted protection from Indian attacks)

18. Bacon raised an army & attacked Indians –Defeated government’s forces and burned Jamestown; Bacon fell ill and died; rebellion collapsed Very significant event –Early example of colonial resistance to royal authority –Highlighted sharp class differences between eastern elites and western farmers –Turned elites against indentured servitude

23. Non-Separatist Puritans 1629: Mass. Bay Colony is granted royal charter –John Winthrop and his “city upon a hill” Theocracy established, only male church members could vote 1630: 1,000 colonists arrive

24. Unlike Chesapeake colonies, Mass. Bay experienced rapid growth & prosperity, why? Strong sense of community –Puritan villages regulated their own affairs Continuing influx of immigrants –Great Puritan Migration brings an additional 15,000 Aid from friendly Indians and Pilgrims Strong sense of religious purpose –Predestination & “City Upon a Hill”

25. Puritans intolerant on religious issues Roger Williams, 1635 –Called for separation of church and state & religious toleration –Banished to Rhode Island Anne Hutchinson, 1637 –Antinomianism: conversion experience required to be one of the elect, good works alone not enough to prove sainthood –Challenged traditional gender roles –She was banished Her supporters founded New Hampshire

26. 1636 – Rev. Thomas Hooker led a large group of Boston Puritans west and founded Hartford Fundamental Orders of Connecticut –1 st written constitution in our history –Est. representative gov’t –Governor chosen by legislature

27. 2 nd generation Puritans seemed less committed to religious faith and more interested in material success How will the Church remain strong? –Halfway Covenant Sign that strict Puritan practices were weakening

28. Initially Puritan relations with natives were good –Natives in weaker position that southern Indians, assisted Puritans with farming techniques and introduced them to new crops (corn, beans, pumpkins, potatoes) Mid-1600s relationship changes –Constant Puritan movement inland –Puritans’ increasingly critical view of the natives as ungodly

Bay, CT, & New Haven –Est. precedent for colonies taking unified action towards a common purpose

31. Wampanoags and Mohawks attacked English settlers b/c of white encroachment –Natives led by Wampanoag chief Metacom New Englander’s called him King Philip NE Confederation helped put the natives down –Their defeat signaled the end of native resistance in NE

32. King Charles II These colonies are referred to as Restoration Colonies b/c they were created during the era when Charles II was “restored” to the throne in England after the English Civil War. Charles wanted to reward his followers with proprietary colonies.

33. 1663: Carolina colony created 1729: separated 2 colonies –South Carolina Large plantations w/very profitable cash crops (rice & indigo), slavery common –North Carolina Smaller farms, less reliance on slavery, reputation for democratic views & autonomy from royal authority

34. 1624: New York originally a Dutch colony called New Netherlands –Dutch West India Company granted huge tracts of land to settlers called patroonships Head of the patroonship acted like a feudal lord Commercial rivalry between England and the Dutch –1664: Charles II’s brother, James the Duke of York, sent the English navy to overthrow Dutch Governor Peter Stuyvesant and take control of New Amsterdam and the rest of the Dutch colony

39. Key Components: –favorable balance of trade –economic self-sufficiency –colonies served needs of mother country by providing raw materials & market for the mother country’s finished goods –Example of mercantilism: Navigation Acts Policy implemented after English Civil War ended but not always enforced (salutary neglect) Widely resented & resisted by colonists

40. 1)Trade to and from the colonies could only be carried on English colonial-built ships, which could be operated only by English colonial crews 2)All goods imported into the colonies, except some perishables could pass only through ports in England 3)Specified or “enumerated” goods from the colonies could be exported to England only. (Tobacco was enumerated). ACTS WERE POORLY ENFORCED FOR MANY YRS.

41. POSITIVE POSITIVE Protection from English military Colonial merchants protected from foreign competitions in the colonies Chesapeake tobacco had a monopoly in England New England shipbuilding prospered NEGATIVE  NEGATIVE  Colonial manufacturing was severely limited Chesapeake farmers received low prices for their crops Colonists had to pay high prices for manufactured goods from England

42. When James II becomes king, tried to tighten royal control over the colonies –1686: Dominion of New England James united the New England colonies and then New York and New Jersey into one colony under Royal Governor Edmund Andros Andros rigidly enforced Navigation Acts, very unpopular 1688: Glorious Revolution –James overthrown and replaced by his daughter Mary and her husband William Led some colonists to challenge ruling elite, but failed (Jacob Leisler, John Coode) –William and Mary sign English Bill of Rights which validated certain rights of Englishmen

43. What were the causes and significance of Bacon’s Rebellion? What conditions in the Mass. Bay Colony spawned dissenters like Roger Williams and Anne Hutchinson? How did Mass.
