Fantastic video about James Oglethorpe &the founding of Georgia I live about 2 miles from the burial place of Oglethorpe & his wife in Cranham in the Essex County of England & definitely intend to make a visit to pay respects to this remarkable man
I served in the U.S. Navy from 1965 to 1971, I was stationed on the USS Oglethorpe AKA 100, until it was decommissioned in the fall of 1968. I knew little of James Oglethorpe, only that the ship was named after Oglethorpe county Georgia. I have many good memories of the men I served with, and the countries and places this ship took us. Thank you for the great information that you shared.
I'm so appreciative of Georgia having leadership that upholds Ethics. I understand it isn't a popular point of public discussion nor popular position, to differ from (DT Republican faction), but I have no personal hesitancy in Applauding Ethics, and placing State, and Country, above an individual and their personal desire. I'm not a resident of Georgia, nor do I have a motive other than recognizing the Value of Respect for adhering to Ethics, and respecting the State and Federal Standards and Laws, that were upheld by whomever was involved in keeping with these Standards, and this having later been further supported again by the Voting Public of Georgia. It is worthy behavior, worth attention and recognition, regardless of ones Political affiliation. It demonstrates State and Country before Party and that is Higher Minded aka Mature Minded thought and action. ... and it deserves to be recognized and acknowledged.

Thank you for a very interesting video. My husband lived in Savannah in the 50's and many of his family still live there. He lived across the street from Colonial Park Cemetery. He and his cousins would play there. I want to do more research on the Herb House/Pirates House. I'm very interested in what you said about it. I'm concerned about Savannah and the changes being made there. One observation, a lot of things talked about didn't "basically" happen, they happened.
Little reason have the inhabitants of Georgia and Alabama to complain that the government of the United States has been remiss or neglectful in protecting them from Indian hostilities, the fact is directly the reverse! The people of Alabama and Georgia are now suffering the recoil of their own unlawful weapons and backsliding. Georgia sir, Georgia by trampling upon the faith of our national treaties with the Indians Indian tribes, and by subjecting them to her state laws, first set the example of that policy which is now in the process of consummation by this Indian war, In setting this example, she bade defiance to the authority of the government of the nation; she nullified your laws; she set at naught your executive guardians of the common constitution of the land. To the mockery of signing other treaties with you, which at the first moment when it shall suit your purpose, you will again tear to tatters and scatter to the four winds of heaven the constitution, till the Indian race shall be extinct upon this continent, and it shall become a problem, beyond the solution of antiquaries and historical societies, what the red man of the forest was! There’s your British blood, your anglo Saxon race! Men who are driven from the civilized portion of the world for their crimes! There’s a gang for you! Texas is just the place for them! -Anti Texas Legion Remonstrance Benjamin Lundy and Some Free Northern States 1846 speech by John Quincy Adams on Georgia
That's wild. I knew a nice chunk of history about Georgia I thought. I never knew Oglethorpe was actually against all segregation and rallied the natives and African Americans together with the settlers. Also kept the Spanish in their place for territorial domination. Too bad the bigots and greedy wanted more money than liberty. Thanks for the lesson.

Why do people not give his title? General James Oglethorpe, and his statue is in Savannah.
This is wonderful! Thank you.
