It was the first rebellion in the American colonies in which discontented frontiersmen took part and attacked Jamestown; it was a protest against the Royal Governor of Virginia, William Berkeley • 2) Landless, poorer frontier Europeans wanted land and Governor Berkeley refused to support; ALSO WANTED A VOICE IN HOUSE OF BURGESSES • 3)RESULT: REBELLION

  15. EFFECTS OF REBELLION • On July 30, 1676, Bacon and his makeshift army issued a Declaration of the People of Virginia, demanding that Indians in the area be killed or removed, and an end of the rule of "parasites." The declaration also criticized Berkeley's administration, accusing him of levying unfair taxes, of appointing friends to high positions, and of failing to protect outlying farmers from Indian attack. After months of conflict, Bacon's forces burned the colonial capital Jamestown to the ground on September 19, 1676.

  16. EFFECTS, REBELLION • Governor Berkeley returned to power, seizing the property of several rebels and hanging 23 men. • After an investigative committee returned its report to King Charles II, Berkeley was relieved of the governorship, and returned to England.

In 1644, he received a charter creating the colony of Rhode Island, named for the principal island in Narragansett Bay.
