What was new jersey like in the 1600s?
umm... i hope the above answer was joking..
it was probably just covered in indigenous plants but also keep in mind what was indigenous back then is probably not what is around there now due to plants coming with people having access to more reasonable transportation methods starting in 1930-1940's. Most people would say New Jersey was mostly woodlands in that era. Consider that New Jersey in the year 1600 save for some Native Americans was a vast forest land from the northern edge of Montclair to the tip of Cape May in the south. Although there are many rivers in Jersey they mostly flow into oceans and bays. There must have been plenty of wildlife because of all the berry bushes that remain to this day. Other than that, Jersey was pretty much off everyones places to see until people from Philadelphia started coming and couldn't find their way back home so here they stayed which lead to the question that many people ask today, " Hey You from Joisey? "

Why would fathers in Tudor England want to marry off their daughter?
Marriage was used to bind families together and to gain lands. It wasn’t for love with noble families and girls were often engaged to older men before they were 7 years old. Then they would be sent to the holdings of the man they were engaged to and taught how to keep the castle by his mother. Mary Queen of Scots was engaged by the time she was 3 years old. Often weddings took place by the time the girl was 12 years old and her lands/money went to her husband. Many young women died early in child birth, but her husband kept her holdings.
Are new york belonged to the french in 1600s?
No, it was claimed by the Dutch, and later the English.
The first European visitor to the area, Giovanni da Verrazzano, named the area New Angoulême, in honor of Francis I, in 1524. European settlement didn't happen until many years later. In 1609, an English explorer, Henry Hudson, working for the Dutch East India Company, sailed his ship up to Albany, and back down to present day New York City; in 1614, the area between Cape Cod and Delaware Bay was claimed for the Netherlands and named New Netherland. Ten years later, a Dutch fur trading post was established on Governors Island, south of present-day Manhattan. Fort Amsterdam, later named New Amsterdam, was centered in what is now Lower Manhattan; the Dutch purchased the island of Manhattan from the Lenape tribe in 1626.
In 1664, the Director-General of New Netherland surrended New Amsterdam to the English, who then renamed the city New York after the Duke of York (later King James II). In 1673, a Dutch captain regained control and renamed it New Orange, after William III, of Orange, but the territory was returned to England the year after that, in whose possession it remained until the American Revolutionary War.
