JAMESTOWN*

JAMESTOWN

1. In my opinion I believe that in a way yes, the videos on (http://www.historyisfun.org/chronicles/main.html) are credible historical sources about how Jamestown was in the past. It give the view point for a common person in the early Jamestown Settlement. You get many points of view form an African American slave named Angela, the Native American Tomocomo, and you even get the view from a women named Ann Burras.

2. Yes and no I have a split opinion o this one. I would have liked to of had a more understanding on the woman's daily routines. I wish when Tommcomo was talking it would have been more about how he met the settlers.

3.well I learned that King James the first did not want another country to settle the "New World" first. I also learned form Ann Burras about how honorably the boat ride form England was. About how most of the people died on the trip and when she reached the "New World" she wanted to turn around and get right back on the ship head home. She said that the conditions of Jamestown were so bad that the ship was more appealing then the living conditions. right before the bad winter she was the first person to get married in Jamestown. That was just a few months before the bad winter. She talked about how there was some men that would eat corps to survive. After the winter there everyone was really skinny and sick but about 50 people survived and a ship form England came in with new people to help populate the settlement.
