SUMMARY:WMGS Monthly Meeting: Peopling Colonial New England 1620-1787
DESCRIPTION:From several small coastal settlements in the early 17th century\, the early settlers and their descendants\, as well as new immigrants\, migrated to other parts of the New England frontier over the next 150 years. Many reasons led to these migrations\, which infilled the settlement of most areas of New England by the time that the new Republic was established in 1787. As this presentation will demonstrate\, there were many ebbs and flows in this process over this time period. Why should this matter to genealogists? If you had ancestors in this region\, this presentation will help you understand why your ancestors were part of this dynamic process\, where and how to look for your ancestors in this area\, and how the population pressures in colonial New England continually pushed the borders outward. If your ancestors lived elsewhere\, this New England settlement model became a template for the future development of the rest of the country and fueled the settlement of many areas of the remaining U.S.
