Sir Walter Raleigh and Henry Hudson played significant roles in shaping New Jersey's early history and exploration. Raleigh sponsored expeditions that contributed to the English interest in North America, indirectly influencing the settlement patterns in the region. Hudson, on his voyage in 1609, explored the area that would become New Jersey, leading to Dutch claims and subsequent English interest in colonization. Their explorations laid the groundwork for future settlements and the development of trade in New Jersey.
