E is for Early Settlers

1. The first people to settle in North Carolina were the Indians. Many believe they came from Siberia. More early settlers came from Europe.

2. The early settlers came from the North to the south because land was getting scarce.

3. They came to North Carolina because there was plenty of land and it was near rivers and waterways that made travel and trade easier.

4. The early settlers chartered the first public school in the US in 1789, It was the University of North Carolina.

5. The first gold nugget in the United States was found in North Carolina in 1799, This might have been what started an economic boon to the state. People from all over wanted to find their share of the wealth.

6. Shaking hands is one of the customs that the early settlers brought with them from Europe. Shaking hands is a common way to greet people in our society today.

7. Storytelling is a tradition that many groups brought to the new world. The stories are meant to educate or entertain. Barbecue is another tradition that started with the early settlers.

8. In the beginning, North Carolina was governed by British law. After the British defeat in the Revolutionary War, the colonies became states and set up their own governments. The first capital of NC was in New Bern.

9. One of the first areas of North Carolina that was settled was the Coastal Plains. This area was best for setting up plantations to grow cash crops like tobacco and rice. It was also a good place because of the waterways and rivers. This allowed for easier trade with England.
