Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) believe that Jesus Christ visited people living in the Americas (it is unknown if they were in North or South America) after his Crucifixion, Resurrection, and Ascension.
This story is the main focus of the Book of Mormon. You can read about Jesus' visit to the Americas in the book of 3rd Nephi, chapters 11-26, in the book of Mormon (a link is provided under "Related Links" below.)
The mesoamerican legend of Quetzalcoatl is sometimes considered possible evidence for this visit.
