(99 pt) which description best fits the first settlers in jamestown? a: gentlemen with skills in farming and hunting b: fishermen and fur trappers families who hoped to settle on small farms to work c: men and boys who hoped to find gold d: families who hoped to settle on small farms

C: men and boys who hoped to find gold is your best answer

The Jamestown colony was essentially established to find gold and other valuable resources, and so many settlers spent more time looking for gold than building up the colony, leading to problems during the first few years. It was not until John Smith arrived that they started to have a survival chance, as Smith showed them how to survive.
