Answer:

D. Convicts.

Step-by-step explanation:

North America in early 1800s was covered by cash crop plantations which needed servants.

Servants sourced and brought to north America ranged from slaves to convicts.

Most of the servants were conics brought to north America to serve their punishment by providing manual labor in the cash crop farms and even in the homes of their masters.
