There has never been an English settlement in the United States of America. You probably mean "Where was the first permanent English settlement in North America?"

Jamestown, in what is now Virginia. There was an earlier English settlement at Roanoke, in what is now North Carolina, but when the next ship arrived the following year, the colony was deserted and no positive proof of what happened has been discovered. Many scholars argue that the natives may have wiped them out, or that bad weather and disease did it.

There are older Spanish settlements in North America, the earliest being at St. Augusine, Florida.
