European Exploration Of New Jersey. In 1498, john cabot sailed off the coast, giving England sold his half of new Jerseyto john Fenwick in the early days of European settlement in the new world. http://www.palsplus.org/wanaque/archive/explore.htm
Extractions: This history of Wanaque is reconstructed from documents and recorded facts. In 1498, John Cabot sailed off the coast, giving England claim to what is now called New Jersey. King Charles II of England owned much of America and in March 1664 granted the region between the Hudson and Delaware Rivers to his brother, James, Duke of York. In June 1664, James, Duke of York conveyed the land to two court friends who had stood by the monarchy during the Cromwellian Revolution, namely John Lord Berkely and Sir George Carteret as tribute to their stout defense of the Isle of Jersey when King Charles had fled there in 1649. The grant carried with it the right to govern and the document of lease and release of the property called it "Nova Caesaria" or New Jersey. Lord Berkely and Sir George Carteret, being friends, divided the present in half. The area was divided, under the 1664 terms, Sir George Carteret taking Eastern New Jersey and Lord Berkely, West New Jersey with no definite dividing line. Actually, faulty navigating by the surveyers who paced out the dividing line gave Lord Berkely almost twice as much land as Sir Carteret but both were dead by the time this came to light. In 1674, Lord Berkely sold his half of New Jersey to John Fenwick in trust for Edward Bylinge.

Extractions: Bristol Mariners seem to have visited Canada in the 1480s, and Christopher Columbus may have learned of, and been inspired by, their voyages. In 1492, William Ayers, an Irishman undoubtedly familiar with English activities, sailed with Columbus on the Santa Maria. In 1497 and 1498 John Cabot, like Columbus a Genoese expatriate, explored eastern Canada under the English flag. By 1502 Englishmen were trading in Newfoundland and parts south, and organizing syndicates, some involving Azorean Portuguese, to exploit the fisheries there. England did not miss the entire European rediscovery of the Western Hemisphere, but did retire early. While England slept, Spain became dominant in the New World and on the high seas. In 1493, during his second voyage, Columbus founded Isabela, the first permanent Spanish settlement in the New World, on Hispaniola. After finding gold in recoverable quantities nearby, the Spanish quickly overran the island and spread to Puerto Rico in 1508, to Jamaica in 1509, and to Cuba in 1511. The natives fared badly. Many died in one-sided armed conflict with soldiers and settlers, or in forced servitude in mines and on plantations. Others died of diseases to which they had no immunity. By mid-century, the native Ciboney of Hispaniola and western Cuba were extinct, and other tribes, including the Arawak of Puerto Rico, were nearly so. Beginning in 1508, Spanish settlements sprang up on the mainland of Central and South America. In 1519, just six years after Balboa had crossed the Isthmus of Panama and claimed the entire Pacific Ocean for Spain, Pedro Arias de Avila, Balboa's father-in-law and executioner, founded the city of Panama on the

Extractions: John Cabot I studied John Cabot. He was born in 1450 in Genoa, Italy. Although he is known as John Cabot his Italian name is Giovanni Caboto. By the time he was a young boy he had moved to Venice, Italy. He grew up there and became a mapmaker and trader. In the 1480's he moved to Bristol, England and had a son named Sebastian Cabot. John died in 1499. The exact date is unknown because he is thought to have been lost at sea. John Cabot was very talented and successful. On his first voyage he worked as a navigator because of his past work as a mapmaker. He left Bristol in 1496 hoping to find a shorter route to Asia. He did not reach Asia as he had hoped because he ended up having to turn back due to bad weather, shortage of food and problems with the crew. On his second voyage he was more successful. He left on the Mathew a small ship with only eighteen men. On May 20, 1497 his voyage began. By this time his son, Sebastian Cabot was eager to come on this voyage. John wanted Sebastian continue exploration so he was permitted to participate in this voyage. Although John Cabot was born in Italy he sailed for England. The King was hoping that John would find a shorter route to Asia than Christopher Columbus, a Spanish explorer, had found. If John came across any spices or gold then he was ordered to give half of the goods to the king of England. He did not find many riches but he did find a very important fishing area that is now called The Grand Banks.

Extractions: THE HISTORY OF CANADA Rediscovery and Exploration In 1497 an Italian named John Cabot sailed west from Bristol, England, intent on finding a new trade route to the Orient for his patron, King Henry VII of England. This voyage led to the rediscovery of the eastern shores of Canada. Cabot was as confident as Columbus had been that a new seaway was now open to Asia. On a second voyage, the following year, Cabot explored the coast of North America, touching at various pointsnone too clearly chartedfrom Baffin Island to Maryland. The Cabot voyages gave England a claim by right of discovery to an indefinite area of eastern North America. Its later claims to Newfoundland, Cape Breton Island, and neighboring regions were at least partly based on Cabot's exploits. Of more immediate significance were the explorer's reports of immensely rich fishing waters. The Roman Catholic countries of Western Europe furnished a market that made the ocean voyage worthwhile, even if it were made to gather the harvest of the sea instead of the spices and jewels of the Orient. Almost every year after 1497 an international mixture of fishing vessels could be seen on the offshore fisheries southeast of Newfoundland and east of Nova Scotia. Occasionally such ships even cruised into the Gulf of St. Lawrence. At times their crews encountered Indians along the shores who were willing to part with valuable furs in exchange for articles of little worth such as beads and other trinkets.

Extractions: THE VOYAGE. W hen John Cabot set sail 500 years ago, he was searching for a passage to the Far East, with spices and gold on his mind and a commission from his good friend King Henry V11. The Matthew cast off from Bristol on the second day of May in the year 1497, with a crew of 18 seamen, adventurers all. This was a time before trans-oceanic voyages and circumnavigation defined the boundaries of the world. C abot's voyage was a step into the unknown abroad an oak-toughened caravel. A brave , little ship of classic British design. After fifty-three days at sea, the Matthew made land. It was an unexpected far east that was found, the tip of an immense continent. The Far East of the Western World. Cabot's voyage marked the start of the globe-spanning British Empire and made possible, and then inevitable, the European settlement of North America. O n June 24, 1997, 500 years to the day that John Cabot landed in the New World, the Matthew will again make a historic landing in the New Founde Land. Arriving 500 years later at the original port of call , Bonivista, the Matthew will lay anchor in 16 other ports in a summer long-exploration of Newfoundland and Labrador's 16,000 kilometers of rugged and majestic coastline.

Extractions: John Cabot settled in England around 1494. Whatever Cabot did was in the name of the English Crown. John Cabot Not very much is known for certain about John Cabot - or Giovanni Caboto, to use his original, Italian name. We do not even know precisely when and where he was born. It is likely, though, that he was born around 1455 in Gaeta, near Naples, and was the son of a merchant. His name is also associated with Genoa, and he may have spent some time there as a boy. But by 1461 Cabot was living in Venice, where he became a citizen. In about 1482 he married a Venetian woman, Mattea, and they had three sons: Ludovico, Sebastiano and Sancio. John Cabot
