English Migration: 1610-1660 • Where are they going?

Focus Question: • Why did Chesapeake planters shift from using white indentured servants as laborers to black slaves? Big Picture: • VA/MD—similar economies, population, & growth • Tobacco! • Indian lands & black labor

Virginia (1639) • Government • Royal Colony by James I • Most legislatures held lifetime appointments and passed laws • Judges & sheriffs appointed by governor collected taxes

Maryland (1632) • Government • Proprietary Colony • Ruled by Lord Baltimore

• Religion • Haven for Catholics • “Headrights system” • Manor system to separate Catholics and Protestants • “Act for Religious Toleration” 1649

Death, Gender, & Kinship • Need for male indentured servants • Death rates high to disease • Widows remarried, but lack of females led to low population

Tobacco Shapes a Region, 1630-1675 • 1618-boom, 1629-bust • Headrights system made planters wealthy & abuse indentured servants • Little land/resources for freed servant = destitution
