Who founded the oldest city in the US?

AnswerGeorge Washington founded the oldest city, and that was Nashville, TN. Two problems with this answer. 1) George Washington did not found Nashville. Quoting Wikipedia "Nashville was founded by James Robertson, John Donelson, and a party of Wataugans in 1779, and was originally called Fort Nashborough, after the American Revolutionary War hero Francis Nash." 2) As the quote states Nashville was founded in 1779. I know Avon, CT was founded in 1645; over 100 years before Nashville.Now, if we are talking oldest continuest, then Wiki says of St Augustine, FL "Founded in 1565 by Spanish explorer and admiral, Pedro Menéndez de Avilés, it is the oldest continuously occupied European-established city and port in the continental United States."If one is referring to the entire United States of America, the answer would be San Juan, Puerto Rico, founded in 1521 by Ponce de Leon. It was actually founded a year earlier as Caparra (today it is Pueble Viejo), but abandoned and resettled in the location of Old San Juan.
