    This may explain a lot.  And remember Spain already had extensive colonies in the Americas by 1604, including Florida to the south of Jamestown.

    Would you tell your enemy that you were opening a new store across town from his if he might firebomb it?

    Try reading the websites posted above and see why the English didn't want to advertise their settlement to the Spanish.

    OHHHHHHH. Was it because they didn't want to get their colony taken over by the Spanish, so they kept their colony hidden for this reason?
