This article describes the conditions encountered by the colonists from the time of the first colonies to the 1760s when differences between the colonies and England became belligerent.

The first colony that had a continuous population were the collection of small settlements on the James River. These date from 1606, so we begin there.

The source of our information for the first versions of this article are the first two volumes of Edward Channing's History of the United States[1][2]
