Dear Lord! This sounds like an essay from a teenager who was never fully awake in class, and only heard about 10% of the lectures, and isn’t too clear on that.
I am surprised there is no mention of the many German settlements in NC. The Scotch Irish are also not mentioned in NC. The rowdy NC folks you referred to must have been those who actually supported the Union...yes, that is correct. Many North Carolinians along the border of VA did not support the confederacy.
@@eggroll6764 yeah probably because in that area there wasn’t much slavery because there wasn’t many plantations in the mountains. So basically they were the ones who became West Virginia
He was talking about Oliver Cromwell and tbe English Civil War that took place 1640’s to 1650’s. During the America Civil War 1861-1865, the capital of the Confederate States was Richmond, Virginia. West Virginia is only a state today because they broke off from Virginia due to the Civil War.
Cromwell became "Lord Protector". He died. His elder son inherited the throne. Then the English wanted a King again and Charles II came out of exile in France and became king of England.
I’m from Wales UK,hard to explain but Iv always wanted to go to North Carolina. Like it’s calling me lol maybe my ancestors ended up there. Thanks for the video, I learnt a lot, one day I will visit, America looks amazing.
@@michaelmoore8834 I think I saw it on TV when I was a kid but also years ago I got into a band called Corrosion of Conformity and they are from NC. Just sounds like a cool place! If you visit UK Cornwall is beautiful as well as my home country Wales. London is nuts, it's not really Britain tho as so many foreigners there.
@@vitusdoom have you ever seen cold mountain, the color purple. Gone with the wind or a walk to remember? I never been out the us but would love to . I lived in Los Angeles it’s people from every where there. Hopefully you can visit NC . It really is a beautiful state. The outer banks and Spanish moss oak trees wild horses that drink sea water. Then western NC the Appalachian mountains builtmore mansion. I do love NC I’m a country boy 30 minutes outside Greensboro. My Ancestors are colonial and Native American. English Scott I Irish German danish. I would love to see the land they came from
My family was the outcasts who settled in NC - then to KY, then to KY, then AR...they got land grants for fighting in wars (at least War of 1812). I'm trying to figure out how and why they moved and they seemed to have moved with some other families such as the Clarks and Lacewells and maybe others (based partly on maiden names and censuses of the few states I mentioned). Did entire neighborhoods get incentives to settle more wild areas after most of the natives had left (or in order to chase off the few remaining natives!)?
All of the soldiers were offered land grants or their widows. I believe it was 160 acres. United States was trying to settle the West. The land west of the Mississippi. They offered the land as an incentive to get people to move that direction with the offer of free land. I've been doing genealogy for quite a while. Decades in fact.
Except my peps!! When it became Alabama my family (3 --4 families) left Georgia and cut through the forest to settled in Alabama. There's a town that is named after one of my great great grandfather
If I had my way my family and I would still be In Fayetteville North Carolina where I was born 65 years ago.i use to think our ancestors and other family members born and died their years ago before I was born and that was considered to me as knight settlement and that we was never gonna leave we were there to stay for life I think of home when I hear the gospel groupe the inspirations and the primitive quartete
Can you show where the Roma Travellers settled in the different waves. I wasn't sure where the ones from Columbus's 3rd visit where he brought gypsies had settled
You're making a lot of generalizations. A lot of the split also had to do with the fact that Charleston was too far away to properly govern the Albemarle colonies and they essentially had to govern themselves so naturally they just split
What a load of nonsense. Its weird that my entire family history traces back into this very region at early dates, and I have ample documentation on all of them, yet none of them were 'aristocrats' and none of them were 'outcasts'. Not suggesting that such groups did not exist, but they were certainly not the majority population of the region. Lee's and Washington's not withstanding, many of the 'elite' families of Virginia and the Carolinas were from much more humble origins - the Jefferson's for example. Family histories clearly show the 'elite' families freely intermarrying with less well off settlers up and down the frontier, even in North Carolina where the families are virtually indistinguishable from those in Virginia, South Carolina and Georgia. Give me the name of an elite family in Virginia and I will find branches that settled early in North Carolina and Georgia.
You are simplifying the settlement of the Southeast to the point of misleading your audience, I'm afraid. I hope you finish this presentation with greater depth of content.
King George and his good friend, James Oglethorpe, only used the "debtor plan" to which you refer, as a ruse to satisfy the Royal Governor of South Carolina, who was adamantly resisting having a new colony to his south. The ruse was that Oglethorpe and the King had an intention of making Georgia into a debtors colony, which would serve as a buffer against Spanish Florida. But, this was only a partial truth. It would be a buffer, alright, but it was never intended to be a debtor colony. This was merely a ruse to fool the SC Governor into thinking of Georgia as a riff raff colony whose riff raff residents would be cannon fodder protecting his land barons in the case of a Spanish attack . When in reality, the fares charged on the ships from England to Georgia were prohibitively high for anyone other than the well to do. The layout of Savannah and her early homes of grace and style further prove the fact that Georgia was never intended as a debtors colony. Oglethorpe, who was granted the title of General as a result of his defeating the Floridians when they did attack, stayed for a long time and he saw to it that Georgia was not settled as a poor folk colony. In fact Georgia had less indentured servants than all the other Colonies put together. There were none in the first two multiple ship voyages which provided the original settling population of Savannah . I am not surprised at your total ignorance of truthful knowledge about the Georgia Colony. The South Carolina Governor was fooled into agreeing with a new Colony to his south. He was fooled by a sitting King of England and a brilliant General. What is your excuse? What's your excuse for being so ignorant about how and what Georgia came to be. Shame on you for your obviously simple and stupid regional prejudice. You have no business talking about Advanced Placement American History tests when you have such a failing knowledge about the formation of Georgia. Adequate, legitimate historical sources prove your ignorance beyond the shadow of a doubt. I assume you do know how to research the issues I have outlined to you, so I'll leave that up to you. You might want to check out the University of Georgia Press. By the way, The University of Georgia was the first Land Grant Institution in the new United States of America, having been Founded in 1785 by Abraham Baldwin, a Yale Educator.
Why did the civil war in England bring colonization to a halt? That seems somewhat counterintuitive to me. One would think it would have caused people to want to flee the war.
Peace to everyone. Please do your own research! This is an amazing topic, however theirs no mention of Moors from Everywhere ,Huguenots from France/ Germany and more importantly Indians ….
This lacks a lot of context. You totally skipped indentured servitude from Britain, of which many of my ancestors were, you skipped the fact that native americans fought alongside colonists as both independence and loyalist allies, you skipped the intermixing of peoples genetically. All of these things are a huge part of the southern settlement history.
Thank you I was gonna say something but you did but I would like to add the tribes that where in nc during this time have never recovered from the negro act enacted in the 1700s stripping our people of tributary status leaving us as Indian citizens later to become negros under this act an now today we are African Americans also being labeled as tories during the revolutionary war people had there lands confiscated
I'm pretty sure Oliver Cromwell croaked not stepped down. His son Richard was unsuccessful in managing Parliament & they brought Charles II to tje throne.
For those who happened upon this video to learn the history of the Carolinas, this video is complete misinformation. Dig deeper. The reason there are two Carolinas has to do with the group of governors assigned to the territory. It had nothing to do with class warfare. There weren’t enough settlers to have class warfare when the colony was divided. In addition, the “Restoration” refers to the restoring of the monarchy in England … not the restoring of colonization. This video is so wrong that it should be taken down.
"Enslaved and tortured the Indians......" That needed to be thrown in out of the clear blue for no reason? Neither enslavement nor torture had never been done in the history of the world before 1660. And it wasn't done afterwards either was it? Ridiculous how you pick what you throw in here as a message to students.
I think you are right that it didn't happen until late in the 1600s, because they had extremely poor and/or 'criminal' class whites from the UK for that and removing them from the UK was like taking the trash out in the minds of some. Some were rebellious types from Scotland angry about England's tyranny...and maybe the same goes for those in northern Ireland (unsure). But, I've been reading that there were also native american and white slaves - at least before Africans were imported (some coming from stolen Portuguese or Spanish ships). Some natives helped the Europeans, some tried until some greedy self-righteous a**hole turned on them, some had no intention from the start for anything but war. Apparently, the first Spanish ship wreck in FL resulted in all (but 2) onboard the ship being eaten by cannibals. All native were NOT the same - in the same way not all Europeans or Africans are. I hate seeing people lumped together in an extreme way. History does that often - maybe for the sake of brevity.
@@wynnhorton1208 The point is that slavery was allowed in early America. That is the truth, just as it was in South America and other parts of the world. It is part of our history regardless of one's character during any era in the last 250 years forward. ruclips.net/video/Zy-GmrMbpMs/видео.html
Agreed, that some of the information is incorrect. Like calling Carolina "California" mid-way through. Anyway, the point is that slavery was allowed in America, lol and to some extent still is (BRIC). Further, just as it was in South America and other parts of the world using people as a foundation to establish a countries economic base is part of our history. We are more responsible for what we do moving forward. Peace and Blessings. ruclips.net/video/Zy-GmrMbpMs/видео.html
@@valeriebowens9682 I agree there is still slavery in the world, and as horrible as it is it basically goes back to what I was saying it's been here before, it's here now, and it will be here in the future. Because there are countries like China that exist. However, there is no slavery in the United States.
@@valeriebowens9682 the point is slavery has been allowed in the entire world since the beginning of time and it continues to do so. Although not in the United States You cannot pick the United States out of all of the civilizations throughout history and say they did wrong because they had slaves. You have to pick 'all' of the civilizations that did wrong because they had slaves to bash. At least be consistent across the board.
