Jamestown was the first enduring settlement of the English in the Americas.[1]

History[edit | edit source]

Founded in 1607, Jamestown served as the foundation for the Colony of Virginia,[1] which later became one of the founding thirteen United States of America.[2] The colony was preceded by multiple failed English attempts, most notably the Roanoke Colony that vanished within five years of its establishment.[3][4]

In the early 18th century, Welsh pirate Edward Kenway sent tobacco crates to Jamestown's old port to make some easy money from the old sailors stationed there, as well as to discuss new trading opportunities.[5]
