∙ 8y agoThe grants encouraged people to cross the ocean and relocate to the New World. In Jamestown in particular headright grants helped to address a labor shortage and increase the number of new colonists.

Landowners could then receive another 50 acre allotment for every passage they paid for additional laborors to move to the colony.
