Why did colonists come to jamestown originally? a. to search for gold b. to farm tobacco c. to promote religious tolerance d. to escape religious oppression

Actually, the answer would be A. To search for gold.

"The Virginia Company launched a joint-stock venture to establish a colony where they could search for gold in Virginia. Colonists searched for gold instead of farming or strengthening their settlement, and as a consequence, many settlers died due to illness, harsh weather conditions through the winter and starvation. The colony ended up bankrupting the Virginia and the crown took over management.
