The settlements of Roanoke and Jamestown predated the Pilgrims.

The settling of St. Augustine also predates the Pilgrims.

It is interesting that I never learned about the "Constant" that brought settlers to Jamestown, but the Mayflower is drilled into our heads since preschool... I wonder if this was a consequence of the bitterness of the Civil War...

I actually first learned about the Constant at Disneyland - the "port" where the Mark Twain steamboat and the Columbia sailing ship dock has a bunch of flags with explanations...
