Father of British America[edit]

Are there any sources that say Raleigh was the Father of British America since he founded a British colony on Roanoke Island in 1585 and 1587? Sir Francis Drake claimed New Albion for Queen Elizabeth in 1579, but no colony was set up, only a fort, to repair a ship. Cmguy777 (talk) 03:39, 25 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
