A Brief History of Jamestown, Virginia

America's first permanent English settlement was established in Virginia in 1607 on an island in the James River the settlers called Jamestown. The settlement, which is about five miles from present-day Williamsburg, provided a shaky home at best. Conditions there were crude and unstable, and the inhabitants - predominantly young white men working as indentured servants to pay off their passage to the New World - endured hunger, malaria-carrying mosquitoes, Indian hostility, heat, and humidity. The settlement's population had to be continually replenished with "fresh" arrivals from England.
