Origin and evolution of Thanksgiving Day in early America
The excerpt traces Thanksgiving origins from sixteenth century English Puritans seeking refuge in Holland to a 1621 arrival in America led by John Rothgon. It notes the first American festival in 1621 with Massasoit and his Indians, a pause in 1622, a reestablishment in 1623, and the nationwide shift after Saratoga. Proclamations by presidents between 1789 and 1868, New York in 1817 and Pennsylvania in 1845, culminate in 1868 with annual nationwide observance on the last Thursday of November. Southern governors adopted the practice postwar.
