This thesis examines French and English trade voyages and trade colonies in North
American during the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, and French and
English relations with Native Americans. The colonies of Port Royal, Jamestown, and
Sagadahoc included members of previous French and English trade voyages and
depended on the experience and information gained during trade voyages to formulate
their economic objectives and colonial policies. French and English North American
activity was intrinsically connected in this era through a plethora of amiable and
competitive associations. National, transnational, and regional frameworks are all
necessary in explaining Port Royal, Jamestown, and Sagadahoc. French and English
interaction with Native American groups during these voyages and colonies was
distinctly similar, and the diverse cultures of the native Mi’kmaq, Eastern Abenaki,
Powhatans, and Armouchiquois, rather than the divisions between French and English
culture, were central in shaping colonist-Native relations in the seventeenth century.
