What nice thins did the colonists do for the Native Americans?
To place the question and answer in proper perspective, it came down as just the reverse. Better said was what did the Jamestown colonists do to the Native American Tribes. With that said, the following narrative attempts to answer the question keeping in mind space considerations. In the early 1600's English colonists established a settlement called Jamestown on the coast of Virginia. The date the colony was founded was 1607. It was the first successful British colony in North America. One of the sponsors of the colony was the London Company. In the beginning, the Native Americans that the British governor of Jamestown, Captain John Smith came in contact with was more than happy to trade goods with the newcomers. The head of the Native American tribes was Chief Powhatan. In about 1600, Powhatan had consolidated his control over about 30 other Tribes in Virginia. The colonies' need for more food came at the expense of English raiding parties to meet their goals. Violence soon ensued over these incursions. The Tribes had their houses burned and yes the colonists stole their food. The Tribes laid Jamestown to seige and many colonists in Jamestown died in 1609-10. It should be noted that the London Company was interested in the new " activity " of smaoking tobacco. This was a new product for Europe and the potential source of great wealth. After a bit of time, a deal was worked out that seemed to benefit all parties. Under Powhatan, the Tribes would trade food for metal hatchets and other metals. It did not take Chief Powhatan to realize that the British were not in Virginia to live but to expand their territory for the tobacco trade. The London Company now realized that Powthan was a military problem that needed to be solved. Now, still in 1610, the London Company informed the new governor, Thomas Gates to bring Chritianity to the Natives and neutralize them by absorbing them into the colony. Gates also informed Gates that he must also have Powhatan & his Tribes to acknowledge King James as their true leader. Gates was no fool and knew this would not work. His plan to survive was to evacuate the settlement and head for home. Not to be however as the British Government was now going to take almost direct charge of the situation. The arrival of a British fleet and new officer in charge Lord Warre had orders to secure Jamestown at any cost and to defeat any Tribal resisitence. Many Tribesmen were killed. Events went back and forth and the now "Virginia Company" sought to make peace. It did and in 1618 Powhatan died and his brother Opechancough became head of the 30 or so Tribes. The new Chief never belived that peace could be maintained. He also sought revenge for the lost Braves in the battles of 1610. As the British expanded their plantations the Chief planned his war. In 1622 he attacked the British plantations. The Powhatans had killed many colonists. It;s now 1624 and Virginia becomes a Royal Crown Colony. At this point the British military was involved, as Jamestown and the surrounding villages were under Royal Crown protection. Opechancough launches his final campaign against the British in 1644, killing many colonists. Opechancough is captured and killed before the set date of his execution. Thus we by hindsight see the ultimate fate of the Native American Tribes. Money, tobacco, and the greed to take it at any cost, deaths to Tribesmen and to colonists no longer mattered. The English had come to (James ) Town.
