Indentured Service is when a person agrees to work for another in return for training, travel or education. It was first mentioned in the Torah, Bible as a person that was a gentile that wanted to become a Christian. They would give six (6) years of service to their teacher. The teacher/master would have them work their land or repair their home as they learned the Bible. This went on through the age's to where it was also used in the 13 Colonies. Anyone but a Christian could be an indentured servant. Any non-Christian could be an indentured servant, not based on color. This indentured servitude became 'slavery', (lifetime indentured service), first through the servant illegally breaking their contract and then finally through the greed of the teacher/master.
Someone who had their trip to the united states paid for by a farmer in the colonies. This person would then have to work off their indenture for 4-7 years before they could become free. This allowed many immigrants from Europe to make it to the colonies who did not have enough money to do it themselves.
