The first English colony in North America was Roanoke, the settlers arrived in July 1584.
Roanoke (in present-day North Carolina) was the first colony, but it was a dismal failure. The colonist disappeared without explanation and it came to be known as "The Lost Colony". About 20 years later Jamestown was established.
