Albemarle Point became the first settlement of Carolina due to its strategic location along the coast, which provided access to vital trade routes and natural resources. Established in 1670, it served as the initial capital of the colony, facilitating the establishment of a stable government and community. The area also offered fertile land for agriculture, attracting settlers seeking economic opportunities. Its proximity to the harbor helped promote trade and interaction with other colonies and indigenous peoples.
The settlers were mostly young folks who had fulfilled the terms of their indentured servitude in the Virginia colony and set off through the wilderness to the wild shores of the Albemarle Sound in the mid-17th century. This was before the charter for the Carolina colony had been granted to the Lords Proprietors, meaning that the settlement was out of reach of any authority in its first years. It tended to attract "rogues" ( at least as they were described by the wealthy planters and traders in Virginia) who preferred to live outside the reach of authority,
Jane Addams was considered a leader of the settlement house movement because of the fact that she helped found the Hull House which opened its doors for immigrants that were in need of housing. With all of its programs for education and the arts, the Hull House had began the settlement house movement that had grown by 1920 to almost 500 settlement houses.

Albemarle Point was the original settlement established by English colonists in 1670 in present-day Charleston, South Carolina. It was chosen for its strategic location on a peninsula at the junction of the Ashley and Cooper rivers. Albemarle Point was later abandoned in 1680 in favor of the more defensible location where Charleston now stands.

The leader of the Jamestown settlement was John Smith. :)
It was the original location of Charleston.
Settlers moved from Albemarle Point to a new location after establishing Charles Town primarily due to issues with the original site, including poor access to fresh water and vulnerability to flooding. The new location, on the peninsula between the Ashley and Cooper Rivers, offered better resources, improved defensive capabilities, and more favorable conditions for trade and growth. This strategic move allowed the settlement to thrive and expand effectively.
