I believe that the cross commemorated the deaths of over three hundred colonists. Queen Elizabeth of England attended the ceremony in 1957 when cross was raised.

Was Jamestown made up of rich people or poor?

Jamestown was primarily established by a group of investors and adventurers, many of whom were seeking economic opportunity and wealth, but the initial settlers included a mix of social classes. While some were from wealthier backgrounds, many were indentured servants or lower-class individuals hoping for a better life. The harsh conditions of the settlement quickly revealed the challenges of survival, leading to a reliance on labor from both wealthy investors and poorer settlers. Overall, Jamestown was a diverse community representing a range of socio-economic backgrounds.

First American settlements?

The first Europeans to arrive in North America -- at least the first for whom there is solid evidence -- were Norse, traveling west from Greenland, where Erik the Red had founded a settlement around the year 985. In 1001 his son Leif is thought to have explored the northeast coast of what is now Canada and spent at least one winter there. Many European fishermen fished the waters off the northern coasts of North America and the US but did not settle there. The Spanish conquistadores explored the Southwest of what would become the US in the 1500s but did not establish permanent settlements. St. Augustine, Florida, was founded in 1565 by the Spanish. The British tried to establish a settlement in Virginia, known as Roanake, Virginia, in 1587 but the colony, known as the lost colony, did not survive. The Jamestown colony in 1607 was the first permanent British colony in North America.
