How did England establish territorial claims in North America?

John Cabot's brief landing on Newfoundland established English claims in North America. In 1607, a group of merchants formed the London Company, to start a money making colony and when they reached Virginia, they settled in a swampy peninsula and named it Jamestown. Hope this helps.
