And, they’re back!!! Great to see Walk With History back from the holidays. I hope you all enjoyed them. This place looks awesome. Maybe I will visit the next time I’m there. This was yet another great video. I really liked the third person filming clips you were throwing in there. Very neat. Great delivery, content, and editing.
Happy New Year, Jenn! I missed you! What an awesome place! I would love to go there. Thank you for another terrific and informative video. You do such a great job!
I love early American history. My 11th Grand Uncle was on the Mayflower. Thomas Williams Unfortunately he died 22 Mar 1621. He was a signee of the Mayflower pact .
Cool! My great grandfather 16 generations was Stephen Hopkins also a signer and was in Jamestown in 1609 after his ship was shipwrecked on Bremuda for 7 months. He went to Jamestown to help settle it but got word his wide died in England so he went back to get his kids. Remarried and arrived with his family plus his new wife and newborn son who was born on the Mayflower Oceanus Hopkins. I love history.
Thanks for the video!!! I’m currently in Williamsburg and debating if I should visit Jamestown. I might just drive to the visitor center and take a couple pictures since you have to pay just to walk around. Not a fan of that since most historical places there’s no fee.
Less widely known is an earlier Thanksgiving celebration in Virginia in 1619 by English settlers who had just landed at Berkeley Hundred aboard the ship Margaret. The Margaret landed her passengers at Berkeley Hundred on December 4, 1619. The settlers did indeed celebrate a day of "Thanksgiving", establishing the tradition two years and 17 days before the Pilgrims arrived aboard the Mayflower at Plymouth, Massachusetts to establish their Thanksgiving Day in 1621.
I think every group of settlers had a day of thanks. The pilgrims Thanksgiving is lore in this country and that's what tends to be taught. But all early colonies struggled and had help from tribes. Alot to be thankful for
He became King James I of Enland and Ireland when his cousin, Queen Elizabeth I, died and the throne was passed to him, which then united Scotland with England, Ireland and Wales, what is now known as Great Britain. England is one singular country within Great Britain. But he was not titled the first because he was the first monarch to rule Great Britain, but because he was the first actually called James ! King James II is II because he is the second King of Great Britain called James. Come on, Walking Through History! 😊
Hmmm, Yeah, you are stating the obvious. James went from the VI to the I because of uniting Scotland, England and Ireland, and they had never had a monarch named James in England. He is the first to rule what becomes Great Britain. The formerly separate kingdoms had been in personal union since the 1603 "Union of the Crowns" when James VI of Scotland became King of England and King of Ireland. Since James's reign, who had been the first to refer to himself as "king of Great Britain", a political union between the two mainland British kingdoms had been repeatedly attempted and aborted by both the Parliament of England and the Parliament of Scotland. I don’t know who Walking Through History is but Walk with History has a Masters Degree in History.
@WalkwithHistory She said in the commentary that he was called King James I because he was the first king of England. It's not so obvious to a viewer who knows absolutely nothing about English/British history.
I think you need to read more carefully, alot of wrong pronunciations and people that follow you and haven't been to these places will start pronouncing it wrong also.
Another great job. So much history on our East Coast
Thank you!!! So much history. This is just the beginning too.

Thanks! It was a good break and it’s great to be getting these out again. Jamestown was super cool…a lot more to see in that museums area too. 😁🙌🏻
Happy New Year, Jenn! I missed you! What an awesome place! I would love to go there. Thank you for another terrific and informative video. You do such a great job!
Happy New Year!!! We missed you too. It is a very cool museum, next week we go to the actual locations where it all took place.
Very interesting indeed. Makes me value more the first settlers. They had to improvise to survive. Cheers y'all.
So brave!!! Thank you for watching.
thanks!
No problem!

Just a heads up you said the first Thanksgiving happened there but it was actually up in Massachusetts at Plymouth
