THE Pennsylvania founded by Quaker William Penn in 1681 and named after his father, Sir William Penn? The Pennsylvania that was intended to be a colony where people of any religion could and did settle and live in Brotherly Love? That Pennsylvania? (Yeah, we just finished up our unit on the settling of the English colonies today... ) Happy Thanksgiving from Minnesota (Where French fur trappers and Catholic missionaries once roamed looking for a decent hotdish.)

The first one arrived in 1623 in Virginia as an indentured servant. The second was in 1635 in New Hampshire. Of the 7800+ people who first colonized Virginia, only 1200 survived. Our ancestors were made of hardier stuff I think. With those kind of numbers, I'd have been on the first boat home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
