I hate to be rude but the first to settle in the US were vikings. It may say in history that Pilgrims were first but even before them the Indians were here. Vikings came from all over. So Vikings are first. (If you improve don't erase the before answers)

From Europe, it was the Vikings who first explored North America, but the first permanent settlements were by English colonists. The Russians colonized Alaska and the northwestern coast of North America. The Polynesians are believed to have reached Central America and South America.
