  • Chapter 4: the Colonies Grow, 1607-1770
    The Colonies Grow 1607–1770 Why It Matters Independence was a spirit that became evident early in the history of the American people. The spirit of independence contributed to the birth of a new nation, one with a new government and a culture that was distinct from those of other countries. The Impact Today Americans continue to value independence. For example: • The right to practice one’s own religion freely is safeguarded. • Americans value the right to express themselves freely and to make their own laws. The American Republic to 1877 Video The chapter 4 video, “Middle Passage: Voyages of the Slave Trade,” examines the beginnings of the slave trade, focusing on the Middle Passage. 1676 • Bacon’s Rebellion c. 1570 • Iroquois Confederacy 1651 formed • First Navigation Act regulates colonial trade 1550 1600 1650 1603 1610 1644 • Tokugawa Shogunate • Galileo observes • Qing Dynasty emerges in Japan planets and stars established in with telescope China 98 CHAPTER 4 The Colonies Grow Compare-Contrast Study Foldable Make the following (Venn diagram) foldable to compare and contrast the peoples involved in the French and Indian War.

  • Massachusetts Bay Colony
    Massachusetts Bay Colony (Edited from Wikipedia) The Massachusetts Bay Colony was an English settlement on the east coast of North America (Massachusetts Bay) in the 17th century. The settlement was located in New England, situated around the present-day cities of Salem and Boston. The territory administered by the colony included much of present-day central New England, including portions of the U.S. states of Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. Territory claimed but never administered by the colonial government extended as far west as the Pacific Ocean. The colony was founded by the owners of the Massachusetts Bay Company, which included investors in the failed Dorchester Company, which had in 1623 established a short-lived settlement on Cape Ann. The Massachusetts Bay Colony, begun in 1628, was the company's second attempt at colonization. The colony was successful, with about 20,000 people migrating to New England in the 1630s. The population was strongly Puritan, and its governance was dominated by a small group of leaders who were strongly influenced by Puritan religious leaders. Although its governors were elected, the electorate were limited to freemen, who had been examined for their religious views and formally admitted to the local church. As a consequence, the colonial leadership exhibited intolerance to other religious views, including Anglican, Quaker, and Baptist theologies. Although the colonists initially had decent relationships with the local native populations, frictions arose over cultural differences, which were further exacerbated by Dutch colonial expansion. These led first to the Pequot War (1636–1638), and then to King Philip's War (1675–1678), after which most of the natives in southern New England had been pacified, killed, or driven away.

  • Chapter 2 Critique of Puritan New England
    Critique of the American Institution of Education Richard B. Wells © 2013 Chapter 2 Critique of Puritan New England § 1. The Incubation Period of American Civilization What I am calling the incubation period is the nearly one and one-half centuries from the establishment of Jamestown in 1607 until 1750, just after the end of King George's War (1744-8). This is the period in history telling the story of what became the United States of America from the evolution of divers British colonial enterprises into a distinctly different North American civilization. Meaning no disrespect to the people of the also-American nations of Canada and Latin America, I am going to call this 'the' American civilization because I have to call it something and because when "America" is referred to today in most countries what is most often meant by this reference is the USA (judging from my experiences of being called an "American" by people from every continent except central and South America, whose people have tended to call me either a "yanqui" or a "norteamericano," and Australia, whose people have tended to call me a "Yank"; real Yankees, however, laconically inform me I am not one of them). The date 1750 is somewhat arbitrarily chosen. A number of historians have seemed to favor the year 1763 to mark the historical epoch, apparently on the basis of, as Morison and Commager put it, "it was not until 1763 that the Thirteen Colonies began to strain at their imperial leash." In point of fact crisp dates marking historical epochs are rarely justifiable by actual events.

    Pre-Colonial “Summer Stuff” Christopher Columbus (1492): • Italian-born navigator who found fame when he landed in the Americas (October 12, 1492) • Left Spain with three ships (Nina, Pinta, Santa Maria) • He sailed west across the Atlantic Ocean to find a water route to Asia (was convinced the Americas were an extension of China) • Returned from his expedition with gold, encouraging future exploration and the Columbian Exchange Amerigo Vespucci (1454-1512): • Italian member of a Portuguese expedition who explored South America • Discovery suggested that the expedition had found a “New World” Treaty of Tordesillas (1493): • Treaty made by the Pope between Spain and Portugal • Created an imaginary Line of Demarcation to divide the New World • East of the line went to Portugal; west of the line went to Spain • The line would later affect colonization in Africa and Asia “New Spain” (1400s and 1500s): • Spain’s tightly controlled empire in the New World • Spaniards developed the encomienda system, using Native Americans as their forced form of labor • With the death of Native Americans, Spaniards began importing African slaves to supply their labor needs St. Augustine, Florida (1598): • French Protestants (Huguenots) went to the New World to freely practice their religion; they formed a colony near modern-day St. Augustine, Florida • Spain, which oversaw Florida, reacted violently to the Huguenots, because they were trespassers and because they were viewed as heretics by the Catholic Church • Spain sent a force to the settlement and massacred

The harsh reality is, there are many realities that need to be worked out prior to people leaving their homeland: A. Shelter B. Food source C. Protection “Who” is going to do “what” in the community? Who is management and who is the work force? So the issue at hand is, how does the community get along? There has to be some set of rules or guidelines to follow.

  • Transcript of Lecture Delivered by Richard S. Dunn, Ph D. on September 12, 1998 John Winthrop, Jr., of Connecticut, the First Govenor of the East End
    Transcript of Lecture Delivered By Richard S. Dunn, Ph D. on September 12, 1998 John Winthrop, Jr., of Connecticut, The First Govenor of the East End If the man I’m going to tell you about this afternoon had had his way 325 years ago, East Hampton would now be a town in the state of Connecticut rather than in New York. Whether that would have been a good thing or a bad thing, I leave to you. But John Winthrop, Jr’s repeated efforts to annex the East End of Long Island to Connecticut are well worth examining. Obviously he failed. But the East Enders in the1650s, 1660s, and 1670s wanted him to succeed. And the struggle that he led for about twenty years for control of eastern Long Island reveals a lot about the political situation in English America at that time. John Winthrop, Jr. was one of the most attractive, intelligent, and interesting men in seventeenth-century New England. He has always been overshadowed by his famous father, John Winthrop (who was governor of Massachusetts from 1630 to 1649), and indeed the father was a more creative and influential leader than the son. But John Winthrop, Jr. was a highly creative and influential leader in his own right. He was born in England in 1606, came to America one year after his father in 1631, and had a strikingly diversified career until he died in 1676. Winthrop was good at many different things. He was the premier scientist in early America, and a founding member of the Royal Society in England.
