What was the first colonial settlement in North Carolina?

Answer 1

The first settlement of the North Carolina Colony was in 1653 by Virginian colonists. Charles II (2) of England granted the Carolina charter in 1663, to eight English gentlemen who had helped him regain the throne of England, for lands south of Virginia Colony and north of Spanish Florida. Because of the northern half of the colony differed significantly from the southern half, and because transportation and communication between the two settled regions was difficult, starting in 1691 a separate deputy governor was named to administer the northern half of the colony. The division of the colony into North and South was complete by 1712, although the same proprietors continued to control both colonies. The new country had been named Carolina a hundred years before by Ribault, the Huguenot, in honor of Charles IX (9) of France, and the name was now retained in honor of Charles II (2) of England, from Carolus, the Latin word for "Charles".
