Visit of James Oglethorpe to the Highland colony, Georgia, c1730s (c1880). General James Oglethorpe established a new colony called Georgia in 1733. A champion of the cause of the poor in debtor's prisons, Oglethorpe had proposed the establishment of a colony in the New World where such people could begin a new life. In the event, few inmates from debtor's prisons ever made it to Georgia, with most of the influx of settlers consisting of Scots, poor English tradesmen and refugees from religious persecution in Switzerland and Germany.
