It originated in America. The grateful Pilgrims then declared a three-day feast, starting on December 13, 1621, to thank God and to celebrate with their Indian friends. While this was not the first Thanksgiving in America (thanksgiving services were held in Virginia as early as 1607), it was America's first Thanksgiving Festival. Source: www.christiananswers.net

The Pilgrims held it in the early 1600's to thank God (and the Indians for helping them) for delivering them from the harsh winter.
