3. European Explorers: Martin Frobisher martin frobisher The early exploration of the new world was full of misadventure.Take frobisher's quest for the Northwest Passage martin frobisher Stamp http://www.stemnet.nf.ca/CITE/exfrobisher.htm

Gander Academy Martin Frobisher Martin Frobisher On his first voyage in search of the Northwest Passage Frobisher landed near Resolution Island, giving this land the name "Queen Elizabeth's Forelande" Martin Frobisher What sort of man was the leader of the expeditions into Arctic waters? A portrait of Martin Frobisher, commissioned in 1577 following the apparent success of his first Arctic voyage, shows a tall, well-built, commanding figure - adventurer and warrior - a little impatient with posing. Martin Frobisher Frobisher went on voyages to the Guinea coast of Africa in 1553 and 1554, and during the 1560s he preyed on French shipping in the English Channel under a privateering license from the English crown; he was arrested several times on charges of piracy but never brought to trial. Who is Martin Frobisher? ENGLISH navigators had been again trying to solve the question which Cabot had failed to do more than half a century before, namely, the existence of a northwest passage to Asia from the British Isles. Among them was Martin Frobisher, a Yorkshireman, whose zeal and patience were remarkable. Martin Frobisher One of many explorers looking for a Northwest Passage to the Orient, Sir Martin Frobisher was one of the first English explorers to sail the northeast North American coast.

4. Martin Frobisher Sir martin frobisher was born in 1535. He is known as an English explorer. Originally frobisher was a pirate, protected by Queen Elizabeth I, who encouraged piracy. Although later historians have found martin frobisher's voyages to the new world to be mostly for moneytary part of Canada's early history of exploration, but some think otherwise. http://www.rockyview.ab.ca/bpeak/students/canada/mmindex2.html

Sir Martin Frobisher was born in 1535. He is known as an English explorer. Originally Frobisher was a pirate, protected by Queen Elizabeth I, who encouraged piracy. However, it is known today that Frobisher's quest to discover the new land was abandoned when he began looking for personal riches. Martin Frobisher came to Canada looking for the Northwest Passage. He hoped to find it because, like many others, he believed that it was a route to China (then called Cathay.) Many people,Frobisher included, wanted to find the Northwest Passage so that they could set up a trade with China and earn money. Frobisher encountered Inuit on this voyage. They fought, and Frobisher lost several men. During his voyage, Martin Frobisher discovered a bay, which he mistook for the Northwest Passage. He realized his mistake, and named it Frobisher's Bay. Here he found black rocks, which he believed contained gold. He brought some of this "gold" back to England with him. Even though Martin Frobisher was looking to find gold and become rich, he still contributed to the discovery of Canada. He discovered "Frobisher's Bay", which is near Hudson's Bay in northern Canada.

The University of Houston's College of Engineering presents this series about the machines that make our civilization run, and the people whose ingenuity created them. T he early exploration of the New World was full of misadventure. Take Frobisher's quest for the Northwest Passage: Martin Frobisher, born in 1535, took up sailing at 19. He became an excellent pirate. Piracy against Spain was legal in England, but Frobisher was too good at it. He got in the way of Queen Elizabeth's negotiations with Spain. She finally had to draft his talents into the English Navy. Then he met Elizabeth's counselor, John Dee. Dee helped convince Frobisher that he could find a Northwest passage to Asia through Arctic Canada. In 1576, Frobisher set out in three tiny ships to look for China. The largest had only an 18-man crew. Frobisher got to Greenland and thought it was one of the Faeroe Islands. A storm sank one of his three ships. Another defected back to England. He finally reached two large bodies of land. He thought the northern one must be Asia and the southern one America. Actually he'd found a 150-mile bay running into Baffin Island. On land he met Inuit Indians who laughed at his alien band. They'd been hearing about Europeans since Leif Ericson.

Early Exploration Later Exploration Portuguese Explorers Early Cartography European Migratory Fishery Sponsored Settlement ... French Presence in Newfoundland European exploration in the region would have to justify itself not only in terms of a route to Cathay, but also in terms of what of value might be found on the New World itself. Later Exploration John Cabot may have discovered an ocean route from Europe to North America, but the information he returned with did little to clarify the geography of eastern Canada. Whether this was the northeastern tip of Asia or one of the islands that geographers believed to lie out in the Ocean Sea nobody yet knew. Over the next quarter century, however, a succession of voyages undertaken by several Portuguese explorers as well as the discoveries of Giovanni Verrazano, sailing for the king of France, proved beyond doubt that something resembling a full continent lay astride the route to the east. Section of Gerolamo da Verrazzano's map of the world, 1529. Dreams of Empire: Canada before 1700 (44 kb) Enthusiasts continued to believe that there might be a narrow channel through this landmass or at least a northern, navigable waterway around it. Further European exploration in the region, however, would henceforth have to justify itself not only in terms of a route to Cathay, but also in terms of what of value might be found in the New World itself.

Early Exploration Later Exploration Portuguese Explorers Early Cartography Cartier navigated much of the coastline of Newfoundland and Labrador on his 1534 and 1535 voyages. Many English voyages to Labrador resulted from efforts to find the Northwest Passage. The English navigator, John Davis, gave his name to Davis Inlet. English And French Explorations Portugal was not the only country interested in the emerging lands of the northwest Atlantic. Both England and France were concerned to stake their claims as well, disputing the right of the Pope to divide the world between Spain and Portugal. Like the Portuguese, they were interested in establishing the geography of the region, and were especially interested to find out whether a viable westerly route to Asia actually existed. This was the primary reason for those English voyages which took place after Cabot. By contrast, the French were as interested in the potential of the fisheries, and the other resources which the region had to offer. 16th Century French Galleon.

HUDSON, FROBISHER AND THE EARLY EXPLORATION OF CANADA: SOME HERALDIC PUZZLES By John J. Kennedy, PhD. Associate Member of the Académie internationale d'héraldique The Enigma of Hudson's Ancestry H udson's Bay today is an interesting part of the dynamic Canadian north. It takes its name from Henry Hudson, the English explorer. Hudson, after voyaging to the river, named in his honour, in New York for the Dutch, set sailing on an English venture to explore the Northwest Passage, this was thought, by the late medieval and early modern explorers of the Americas, to be the fast route to the far Orient. By following this fabled passage, it was hoped the monopoly of the Portuguese and later the Spaniards in the lucrative spice and silk trades could be broken. The quest for this Nothwest passage was to dominate a number of explorations of our continent. We do know that our navigator did have connections with the Muscovy Company (otherwise known as the Worshipful Company and Fellowship of the Merchant Adventurers trading to Muscovia, or the Russian Merchants). Rodney Dennys, the present Somerset herald of Arms at the College of Arms, informs us that, "these merchants traded cloth of all sorts to Russia and also ‘much defective Wines and fruits, not fit to be spent in this Kingdom (of England)', together with all sorts of English commodities. In return they imported skins, fish, caviar, potash, isinglass and much else besides" (Dennys, 1975: 149). It was one of the Muscovy Company's vessels that Hudson used on his voyage to Canada. This might also indicate that Hudson was familiar with the perils of sailing in the far north and with the dangers of ice floes and icebergs, perhaps even with wintering over in a given location, before having entered Canadian waters.
