Dear Sirs or Madam: Please help for my 8th grade Social Studies challenge: to make a "sales" pamphlet to entice people to choose to come to New York Colony rather than any of the other 12 colonies. The time frame is 1730-1750 AD. Information on a citizens relationship with community and colony government might be helpful. How hard was it to start a new business or farm. Were there incentives provided by the community to help newcomers get started? (Example: seed for a new farmer) Were well-to-do colonists sought after to invest in ongoing businesses? What were the opportunities ... successful and unsuccessful businesses? How "modern" was the economy? Money, contracts, banking services? Appreciate your reply to [log in to unmask] Respectfully, Sean Allen Apt 4-216 14038 Peyton Drive Dallas, TX 75240
