Jamestown colony was actually an English settlement funded by a private endeavor in Virginia and the investors were asked to locate gold and a sea route to the Pacific Ocean.

The problems which they faced were the friendly ties with the natives which were not satisfactory, Food shortage and water contamination. This lead to the digging up of many wells and gradually brought famine and drought.
