Know The History of American Lotto’s Before Play

In the early 1600’s, the first English colonies were established financially with the help of lotteries. The funds raised were used to build churches, pave streets and construct wharves amongst other public works projects. Lotteries were also used to finance the construction of schools like Harvard, Yale and other prominent schools in the 1800’s.

Benjamin Franklin held a lottery to raise funds for cannons which would be used in the fight against the British and Thomas Jefferson held a lottery to raise funds to alleviate his debt. Both lotteries were unsuccessful. The late 1800’s saw a ban across America for most gambling and all lotteries. From the early 1900’s lotteries run by the government were established and slowly they began to thrive. Today there are lotteries held in forty four states.
