The English first attempted settlement on Roanoke Island, present-day North Carolina. This colony failed, and the English only finally "succeeded" at Jamestown, Virginia, which was initially settled by the English beginning in 1607. Incidentally, the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth in November of 1620, not 1629.
