Indentured servants were pushed or pulled from their home countries throughout the 18th century to the British colonies in the Americas. Indentured servants were given free passage to the the colonies if they were willing to work for free for a given period of time, usually a few years, for their employer who paid for their passage. These individuals could have left Britain or Germany for a number of reasons including political or religious persecution, lack of job opportunities, or others.
