English colony of Jamestown in North America

The #VirginiaCompany was chartered by #KingJamesI of England (and VI of Scotland) on #ThisDayInHistory in 1606. Being a #JointStockCompany helped to ensure the colonies it launched, notably #Jamestown, would succeed, though at a horrific death rate & through #Indigenous genocide.

Conanicut Island Lighthouse, Jamestown, RI 4/4/2026. One of the few remaning Rhode Island lighthouses I had yet to visit. It was first activated on April 1, 1886 featuring a fifth-order lens in a decagonal lantern room that shone a fixed red light at a height of sixty feet above the water. It was deactivated in 1933 and its lantern and lens were removed. It is currently a private residence and not open to the public. #conanicutislandlighthouse #lighthouse #phare #faro #leuchtturm #灯台 #todai #newengland #rhodeisland #jamestown #jamestownRI

The #SecondAngloPowhatanWar (aka #PowhatanUprising) was a brutal decade-long fight between the #Jamestown colony and its #Indigenous neighbour the #PowhatanConfederacy. It began #ThisDayInHistory in 1622 with the massacre of 350 English settlers who were destroying their lands.

The #AngloPowhatanWars are three conflicts between the #VirginiaCompany colony #Jamestown and the #Powhatan nation. The third began #ThisDayInHistory in 1644 and resulted in a hard boundary between the two peoples... which lasted only until 1677, as #genocide was always implied.
