Here's an interesting document that I found in the Papers of the Continental Congress. It's titled, "Facts respecting the first settlement and granting charters to the American Provinces" (you'll find that title sideways on the last page of the document) and it creates a kind of time line of British colonization of North America from 1584 through 1732.
