The Role of the Salzburgers
In March 1734, Oglethorpe was planning to leave for
Great Britain to report to the colony’s trustees when
new settlers arrived.

A group of German Protestants had been forced to leave Salzburg, which was then controlled by Catholics. They were led by John Martin Bolzius and they asked to live in Georgia.

Oglethorpe took the Salzburgers to a place 25
miles from Savannah. There they began a town
called Ebenezer which means “the
Rock of Help.”

However, because the land was marshy with poor soil for crops, the Salzburgers asked Oglethorpe for a better site. In 1736, they moved to Red Bluff on the Savannah River.

There near Red Bluff they built another town
which they called New Ebenezer.

Oglethorpe made a trip to Great Britain. When he
returned to Savannah in early February 1736, he
brought 300 new colonists with him.

Included were another group of Salzburgers, some Moravians (Protestants who banded together in Saxony, Germany, 1722) and 2 religious leaders, John and Charles Wesley.

Upon his return, Oglethorpe helped the Salzburgers move to
Frederica on St. Simons Island.

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 about 175 of them
to settle south of Savannah.
![Page 13: 1 SS8H2b TSW analyze the colonial period of Georgia’s history. b. Evaluate the Trustee Period of Georgia’s colonial history, emphasizing the role of the](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649e4f5503460f94b46336/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

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.
![Page 14: 1 SS8H2b TSW analyze the colonial period of Georgia’s history. b. Evaluate the Trustee Period of Georgia’s colonial history, emphasizing the role of the](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649e4f5503460f94b46336/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Darien was the only Gaelic [gae-lick] speaking settlement
in Georgia. The Highland Scots kept many of their
culture's traditions, including the family clans and the
wearing of kilts. Left: Darien is located is what is
now known as McIntosh County

The Highland Scots were hard workers. When they
found that the soil was not good for agriculture, they changed to raising cattle and harvesting timber.

Their successful economy encouraged
other Highland Scots
to emigrate to Georgia.

In 1739, a number of Darien leaders signed a petition asking that slavery not be introduced into the colony. The was the earliest antislavery petition in the South, and it was successful for a time. The ban against slavery wasn’t lifted until 1749.

Upon his return from Great Britain in 1736, Oglethorpe
introduced several new regulations with the
approval of the trustees.

Buying rum was to be against the law, and
alcohol could not be used in trading with the Native
Americans.

Slavery was not allowed because Oglethorpe thought it caused landowners to be
idle, or inactive, while at the same time, made them want
more land.Left: Paintingof theGeorgiaColonytrustees

22
Oglethorpe’s new regulations weren’t
popular. The regulations, plus the earlier
one about passing on land only to male heirs, began
to divide the colonists.

They were already facing economic hardships. Their mulberry trees were the wrong kind for producing large amount of silk. They
weren’t able to grow hemp, flax,
indigo for making blue dye or grapes for wine.

To make matters worse, their South Carolina
neighbors, who had large amounts of land, slaves,
and rum, were doing well.

25
They were growing rice, cotton, and tobacco, and their success was due, in part, to
the use of slave labor. Growing numbers
of Georgia settlers also wanted slaves.

26
There was less and less support for the trustee’s regulations. Many of the
malcontent settlers moved to places where they
could live more nearly as they wished.

When Oglethorpe returned to Georgia after one of his
trips to Great Britain, he found upset
people all over the
colony.(She doesn’t look very
happy, does she?)

Great Britain controlled Georgia’s borders, and
Spain controlled Florida’s. There seemed to be no way
to keep the two groups from
fighting.

In the fall of 1739, a war broke out between Great
Britain and Spain. It was called the “War
of Jenkins's Ear.”

Several years earlier, Spanish sailors were said to have cut off the ear of Robert Jenkins, a British seaman, to serve as a warning to British ship captains smuggling goods off the Florida coast.

Oglethorpe welcomed the war. It gave him a good reason to invade neighboring Florida.

A force of about 2,000 men, mostly Native Americans and
settlers from Georgia and South Carolina, was quickly organized.
They tried to take major
Spanish forts in Florida,
particularly St. Augustine.map showing British siege of St. Augustine

However, a well-organized Spanish militia met
Oglethorpe and his soldiers with a surprise attack on
June 15, 1740.

However, the Spanish won, and Oglethorpe's
forces had to retreat to St. Simons Island.

During the next two years, there were numerous attacks and counterattacks between
the Spanish and British settlers, with neither gaining
much ground.

37
In July 1742, Oglethorpe got the opportunity he needed. His
forces, assisted by the Highland Scots, waited in
the dense woods along the marshes on St. Simons Island.

Spanish troops who came that way were caught
completely by surprise and forced back across the
Florida border.

neither big nor bloody.

In 1743, Oglethorpe was called to Great Britain to answer charges that he hadn’t acted correctly when he failed to capture the Spanish-held St. Augustine.

Oglethorpe was cleared of the charges, but he did not return
to Georgia. Instead, he remained in Great Britain.

William Stephens, the trustees’ secretary, was
named president of a colony filled with disagreement.

The people still wanted to own more land and to have
slaves.

46
By 1750, this was allowed. The regulation against slavery was repealed, along with the one that allowed a colonist to own
only 500 hundred acres of land.

Over the next three years (1752-1754), Georgia was led by President Patrick
Graham. During his tenure, many settlers who had left
under the rule of the trustees returned to the
colony.

A large number of settlers were European Protestants who came to the colony to
escape religious persecution. In Georgia, they
were able to practice their
beliefswithout fear
of punishment.

Treaties with American Indians and the elimination of
the threat of Spanish invasion ended the need for British military protection.
Georgia was a safe haven
