Middle and Southern English Colonies

The establishment of the Middle and Southern English Colonies of North America was encouraged by the earlier English settlements of Jamestown Colony of Virginia in the south (founded 1607) and Plymouth Colony and, especially, Massachusetts Bay Colony in the north (founded 1620 and 1630 respectively). These early colonies not only inspired more English to cross the Atlantic to start a new life in North America but, in the Middle Colonies especially, those of other nations.
The colonies of New England grew primarily from the Massachusetts Bay Colony following Plymouth’s success. Rhode Island, Connecticut, and New Hampshire were all developed by religious dissenters from Massachusetts Bay.

Henricus (1611-1622 CE, also known as Henrico, Henryco, Citie of Henryco) was a colony established in Virginia, above Jamestown, in 1611 CE by Sir Thomas Dale (l. c. 1560-1619 CE). Dale had been ordered by the Virginia Company of London – which had funded the expedition that established Jamestown Colony of Virginia – to locate a site for a new colony that would replace Jamestown as capital. Dale’s mission was to find better land for a colony as well as to fortify it against possible attacks by the Spanish who objected to England’s colonization efforts in North America, claiming it was already theirs.
