Re: List of african american inventions. Don't be so jumpy to be a jackass. I was disputing Vor's claim that a black man invented the air conditioner. I was asking HIM to provide a link and the date since the claim on Frederick Jones was in the 40's and Carrier patented way earlier than that.
Jamestown, Roanoke, and Plymouth were some of the first English colonies.he first English colony was established on Roanoke Island, in what is now North Carolina, in 1585. A second colony, the famous Lost Colony, was established two years later, b â¦ ut disappeared.
In 1585 Raleigh established the first British colony in North America, on Roanoke Island off the coast of North Carolina. It was later abandoned, and a second effort two years later also proved a failure. It would be 20 years before the British would try again.
