Sometime around 1620 the authorities at Jamestown estimated that there were 20,000 or more persons of European origin in the area we now call Maryland.

Where did they come from?

Were they just light-skinned Amerindians?

Between 1607 and 1620 there were dozens of ships carrying people to the colony. One of my 8th-great-grandfathers was brought to Jamestown in 1619 as an adolescent orphan and he settled in Maryland.

European fishing operations are alleged to have operated on both sides of the North Atlantic in pre-Columbian times.
