Roanoke Island (Lost Colony)
Sir Walter Raleigh asked Queen Elizabeth of England if he could lead a group of people to begin a colony in the USA.
Queen Elizabeth gave Raleigh a charter (a document that allowed colonists to live on land owned by their country.)

Roanoke Island (1st Time)In 1585, Raleigh sent
100 men to settle Roanoke
It failed due to bad winter which led to hunger and also to bad relations with the Native Americans.
All but 15 men went back to England on a ship.

Roanoke Island (2nd Time)In 1587, Raleigh
sent colonists a second time, 91 men, 17 women and 9 children
The 15 men that had stayed behind the 1st time had been killed by then.
John White, a map maker led the group.
Upon arrival White found only a skeleton to show where the former settlement had been.

Indian Village
White drew pictures of what he saw describing the village of the Native Americans as “small and few…contain but ten or twelve houses.”

Ending the Good Relations with the Native Americans
Because of the 15 men that had been killed by Native Americans, John White decided that they should pay the Native Americans back. He ordered his men to attack the Powhatans since supposedly, they were the ones who had killed the 15 men. However, they instead attacked the Croatoans, Native Americans who had been their friends and helped them. After the battle, the Croatoans were enemies. This forced John White to have to go back to England for more food and supplies and also recruit more people.

The Lost ColonyIt took John White
three years to return and when he did he did not find any colonists on Roanoke Island.
The only clue was CROATOAN carved on the gate post.
They were never seen again!

In April of 1607, the ships enteredthe Chesapeake Bay and then sailed up a river flowing into the bay. The colonist named it James and their new settlement Jamestown to honor their King.

When the settlers chose the location in 1607, Jamestown was located on a narrow peninsula bordered on three sides by the James River.

Why did the settlers choose the site at Jamestown?
This is one of the very first maps of Virginia. Can you find the Chesapeake Bay?

The location could be easily defended from attack by sea. The English feared a sea attack by the Spanish.

Nearly all of Jamestown's settlers were men. They worked for Virginia Company and lived under strict rules. As the colony grew they started to complain about taking orders.

The complaints of the workers led to the first representative legislative assembly
House of Burgesses“burger”-old English term meaning free citizen
It dealt with local matters Served as a place to protest against policies
“WhataBurger” –build your Burger that represents you!!

Also, in 1619, twenty Africans arrived in Jamestown against their will. They were sold to Virginia planters to labor in the tobacco fields. In the beginning, they arrived as indentured servants (a person who exchanges 5 to 7 years of servitude for a passage to America).

The English also introduced the institution of slavery in Virginia. It lasted a long time because of the tobacco industry.

In 1620, the Virginia Company of London sent a ship with 90 young women to Jamestown. A man who wanted to marry one of these women, had to pay 120 pounds of tobacco to the ship’s captain for her trip to Jamestown.
