Abstract
Historian and author Bernard Bailyn talks about eighteenth century migration to North America, which he describes as being very different from the migration of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, in which immigrants from small villages or farms moved into huge urban centers. Professor Bailyn says the migration of the eighteenth century was of two varieties, with young, single, male indentured servants going to coastal labor markets, while families that were more or less intact and had some resources headed out into the western areas.
