The first colonists were chosen to come to Georgia by James Oglethorpe. James Oglethorpe as a refuge for London's indebted prisoners, Georgia was ultimately established in 1732 to protect South Carolina and other southern colonies from Spanish invasion through Florida. He put together a party of settlers and they crossed the Atlantic Ocean in the ship Anne to begin settlement of the colony of Georgia.
