Summary:	The first permanent European settlement in the United States was founded two generations before the Pilgrims arrived in 1565 - not by English Protestants, but by a melting pot of Spanish, Africans, Italians, Germans, Irish and converted Jews, who integrated almost immediately with the indigenous tribes. America's Untold Story, from Secrets of the Dead, uncovers the story of America's past that never made it into textbooks. Episode Three - The British Are Coming: In 1763 Spain ceded Florida to England in order to keep its valuable port of Havana. The entire city of St. Augustine fled to Cuba and Mexico to avoid British rule. As the Spanish move out, the British move in - and with them, slavery.
