The malcontents in colonial Georgia were distinct from other groups primarily because **most of them paid their own way with little assistance**. This group of settlers were unhappy with the governance of the colony, particularly concerning land ownership and restrictions imposed by the Trustees. Unlike many other settlers who received assistance or land grants from the colony, the malcontents had financed their own journeys and settlements, which influenced their push for various changes in colonial policy.
