Various notes on early settlers of Virginia 1607. The settlers landed at Jamestown, May 23, 1607. This was the first permanent settlement effected by the English in North America. Upon landing Edward M. Wingfield was elected President. About the end of the year 1607 they were joyfully surprised by the arrival of the Phoenix, commanded by Captain Nelson. He brought with him the remainder of the first supply which comprised 130 settlers, among whom was George Hill.

An expedition of nine vessels was fitted out with supplied and men and women of 500 settlers. They sailed from Plymouth in May 1609.
