Quakers, German farmers and Virginia frontier people settled the "northern part of the Carolinas".

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Virginians founded the first permanent European settlement in northern Carolina in the region of Albemarle Sound, about 1653. Charles II recompensed eight of his most loyal supporters in 1663 by declaring them Carolina "lords proprietors."

The new owners divided their holdings immediately into three districts named as the northern district of Albemarle, already home to a small settlement of transplanted Virginians, the short-lived district of Clarendon bordering the Craven district of Cape Fear. While development was regulated around small farms, which were occupied in the manufacturing of tobacco, corn and livestock.
