The top priority of New England colonists was Fishing.

The American colonies generally focused on harnessing the resources that their environment had. New England was next to rivers and the ocean so they generally focused on water based activities.

This was why they had interests in activities such as:

fishing

whaling

shipbuilding

They also had non-water based activities such as cattle rearing and logging. All these paled in comparison to the interest placed on fishing however as this was their largest economic activity.

In conclusion, fishing was the major economic activity of the New England colonies.

vitfil [10]

Jubal Early's army was a threat to the North because they made a raid and were about to take Washington D.C.

Jubal Anderson Early (1816 - 1894) was a military leader of the American Confederacy noted for being an opponent of secession. Nonetheless, he supported his home state Virginia once the War began.

When he joined the army he had the position of Colonel and participated in the battles of:

  • First and second battle of Bull Run
  • Battle of Antietam
  • Battle of Fredericksburg
  • Battle of Chancellorsville
  • Battle of Gettysburg.
  • Battle of the Wilds
  • Battle of Spotsylvania

Early stood out for commanding the Confederate forces towards the Shenandoah Valley in 1864. In this dispute they were a great threat to the Union because they were about to take Washington DC, but were defeated by Union troops commanded by Philip Sheridan.
