Jamestown was founded in 1607 with 104 men sent to make a profit for the investors who sent them. Tobacco didn't show up until John Rolfe introduced it to the colony in 1610. Without tobacco the colony would have probably failed, but tobacco saved it because demand was so high. Not only was it used as snuff, being smoked, and with pipes but Jamestown used it as currency. It was grown in any space that could be found including the streets.
