The antecedent for the pronoun 'they' is the noun settlers.
Settlers built forts and towns. Settlers also established farms.
The noun for which the pronoun stands is called its antecedent (or noun antecedent).Example:I don't like my English teacher, she is a real witch! (The pronoun 'she' takes the place of the noun 'teacher' in the second part of the sentence.)
The pronoun 'who' is both an interrogative pronoun and a relative pronoun.The antecedent for the interrogative pronoun'who' is most often the answer to the question.Example: Who is your English teacher? Mr. Grant is my English teacher.The antecedent for the relative pronoun is the noun that the pronoun is giving information about.Example: The flowers were given to me by a neighbor whohas a garden.
The 'error' is the plural possessive adjective 'their' takes the place of the singular indefinite pronoun 'everybody'.Normally, a pronoun must agree with its antecedent in number (singular or plural). However, in English there is no singular gender neutral third person pronoun and it is acceptable to use the gender neutral plural pronouns they, them, theirs, their, themselves when the gender of the antecedent is unknown or may be a mixed group of male and female.
When a sentence begins with "there is" or "there are" it is called an expletive sentence.The word "there" is not a pronoun with an antecedent, and the subject of the sentence is considered the noun following the linking verb, as occurs with interrrogatives (e.g. who is the king?). The singular or plural verb (is, are) will agree with the later subject.Examples:"There is some disagreement over this point." (subject is disagreement)"There are often confusing rules in English grammar." (subject is rules)

This difference in approach led to more positive interactions between the French and indigenous groups.
