1 answer

James Oglethorpe was not royalty; he was an English general, Member of Parliament, and the founder of the Colony of Georgia in the 18th century. He was born into a wealthy family in England, but he did not hold any noble titles or royal status. Oglethorpe was known for his philanthropic efforts, particularly his work in advocating for the welfare of debtors and his vision of establishing a colony in America as a refuge for the impoverished and as a buffer against Spanish Florida.
