The first Europeans to the area were led by French explorer, Samuel de Champlain in 1609. A fort and settlement were not established until 1666 and it was soon abandoned. The first permanent settlement was built by the English in 1724. The French built a fort and small village in 1731. Following the French and Indian War, France relinquished all of its North American territories to the British.
