Marquis de Lafayette came to America because he, like many other Frenchmen, hated Great Britain. He decided to come to America to help the Americans fight the many battles against the British. He proved his loyalty to America when he was wounded in the leg during the Battle of Brandywine and stayed with Washington and the American troops at Valley Forge during the cold winter.
If you have any other questions about him, let me know! :-)
When the Patriots realized Lafayette had arrived in Chesapeake Bay to assist with the ships, they likely felt a surge of hope and morale. His presence symbolized not only much-needed military support but also a strong alliance with France, reinforcing their fight for independence. The excitement and gratitude for Lafayette's dedication would have inspired the troops, bolstering their resolve against the British forces. Overall, it would have been a pivotal moment that energized the Patriot cause.

No, the Patriots were happy to have help. LaFayette came from France. Baron von Steuben from Germany to help train the Patriots. However, you must also understand that Britain and other countries had been fighting in wars for years. All of the countries had financial burdens from prior wars on European soil.

France was the primary ally, and the helped by laoning huge sums of money, and selling the Patriot cause cannons, muskets, powder, shot and a variety of other goods. After the Treaty of Anmity and Commerce, in 1778, they also became directly involved, sending a fleet and numerous ground forces to fight alongside the Patriots.
