Some of the early nobility in Virginia were referred to as "cavaliers." This term was used to describe the wealthy English settlers who came to Virginia in the 17th century, especially those who received large land grants from the crown. Many of these individuals were loyal to King Charles I during the English Civil War and sought to establish a plantation economy in the colony. Additionally, they often held titles such as "gentleman" or "planter," reflecting their social status and land ownership.
