Project Gutenberg 2007-09-13 Public domain in the USA. 563 Various Verschillende Various, Various Colonial Records of Virginia E-text prepared by Mark C. Orton, Thomas Strong, and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team "Colonial Records of Virginia" by Various is a historical account of the early legislative history of Virginia, compiled in the late 19th century. This work documents significant events and proceedings from the first assembly held in 1619 through various legal and governmental developments in the colony. It serves as a vital resource for understanding the foundations of American governance and the socio-political context of early colonial life. The opening of the text introduces the historical background surrounding the first General Assembly of Virginia, emphasizing the dire conditions faced by the colony under previous governance. It describes the transformative arrival of Governor Sir George Yeardley, who implemented a more democratic framework by calling the assembly and allowing representatives from various plantations to participate in governance. Initial proceedings included debates on the legitimacy and participation of various representatives, the establishment of legislative procedures, and the drafting of laws concerning trade, land use, and the treatment of Indigenous peoples, marking the beginning of self-governance and legal order in Virginia.
