The first successful English colony was Jamestown (1607). The first attempts at colonisation were during the period 1584-1587. Three separate groups were sent. All were unsuccessful. The third group, "the Lost Colony"which was comprised of men, women and boys (no girls) disappeared some time after 1587.
In 1607 the London Company sent 104 men in three ships to VA to establish a colony. They built a fort on swampy land and within 6 months most of the 104 were dead or sick. Most of the men who came were there to look for riches and gold. They didn't plant crops or prepare to survive the cold winters of VA. The men were a combination of military, outlaws, and gentlemen. Part of the problem was that no one did any jobs like planting crops or doing what they needed to live. Jamestown wasn't meant to be a colony established as a settlement in a new world, but make men rich. It wasn't until Rolfe introduced tobacco that the colony took off and grew. At first, there were no women in Jamestown.

He established the first colony in Jamestown, Virginia
In late 1606, the three ships sent by the London Company landed at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay. However, they were abruptly attacked by some of the Natives, and forced to move. They eventually settled on the banks of James River, (named for King James I), and it was known as Jamestown.
