Founded in September 1565, St. Augustine is the first city settled by Europeans in what is now the United States. In 1566, Martín de Argüelles was the first child of European descent to be born in the continental United States. In 1606, Augustin was the first child of African descent to be born in what is now the United States. It was not until 1585 when the first English settlement — Roanoke, Virgina — was first established. Jamestown, Virginia was not founded until 1607.
