The headright system and indentured servitude policies were primarily developed by colonial English settlers in the early 17th century, particularly in Virginia. Key figures, such as Sir Edwin Sandys, who was involved with the Virginia Company, played a significant role in promoting these systems to encourage settlement and labor in the colonies. These policies aimed to attract more settlers by providing land incentives and a labor force to support the growing agricultural economy.
