None. Jamestown was established in 1607 and the first slave doesn't come to the colonies until 1619.

What are some major historical events in Virginia?
A few major events are as follows: *Virginia was the first settlement by the british colonisation (Jamestown) *Virginia's Jamestown was burned down in a uprising called 'Bacon's Rebellion' *Virginia is also suffered a secession. basically at the start of the American civil war, some of Virginia disagreed and west Virginia was born. *Virginia was also the capital state of the confederacy during the American civil war
How did the colonists contribute to the failure of Jamestown Virginia?
most colonists were very unhealthy when they reached the settlement of Jamestown and were under prepared for its harsh winters many died as a result with having limited medical treatment options and opportunities
Were the first africans brought to Jamestown in 1619 considered slaves or indentured servants?
slaves Um, not true. Actually, slaves WERE treated as indentured servants at first and could even get their own plot of land after their "contract" expired. After a while, Africans that were imported were considered slaves. ____________________________________________________________ According to Sir Nicolas Ferrars papers held at the Magdalene college in Cambridge, England. The first africans arrived to Jamestown on a dutch frigate. The census of 1619, which covered Jamestown residents for the year 1618, showed 32 Africans Non-Christians.These people were NOT the 20 Angolans who arrived in August 1619. The Angolans arrived onboard a portuguese slave ship called the San Bautista.Slavery evolved in colonies of time. We know that many of the 1619 Angolans served 3-7 year terms as indentured servants and were later freed. With the steady influx of African labor and racial miscegenation between whites and blacks of ALL statuses, Virginia chose in 1720 to give all newly arrived africans a permanent enslaved legal designation. That status did not affect those who arrived prior to the law.Many complexities to American history!

What was the name ship that brought the first Africans to Jamestown in 1619?
According to William Thorndales 1977 article published in the Virginia Quarterly magazine, there were 32 Africans already in Jamestown prior to the arrival of the 20 & so odd Angolans that arrived in Aug. 1619.source: William Thorndale, "The Virginia Census of 1619," Magazine of Virginia Genealogy, Vol. 33, Summer 1995, No. 3.The article was based on Virginia Colony records and papers written by Sir Nicolas Ferrar who initiated the first English voyage to America. Mr. Ferrar and his brother John counted 928 souls in Jamestown during the year 1618. That census was released in Mar. 1619.Of the 928 persons, 17 were African females (non-christian) and 15 were African males (Non-Christians) and 4 Indians. According to Sir Nicolas, many of the first arrivals (date of arrival not given), came onboard a Dutch Frigate.The Africans that arrived in late 1619 arrived in Jamestown onboard Two ships called the "Treasuror" and "White Lion".These two ships actually seized the "August 1619 group of Africans" from a Portuguese slave ship called the "San Bautista". The English ships split the cargo, (nearly 300 Africans), then sank the San Bautista. On their return to England they ran out of food and supplies. They sailed into Jamestown harbor on August 1619. It was John Rolfe who traded food for 20 or so odd Africans for much needed labor. These people were NOT slaves; they served 3-7 year indenture contracts like their white counterparts and subsequently freed to live as free persons.John Rolfe placed these africans in the household of family members and close associates...such as the Staffords & Evans families.Hope this helps.
