There was some integration by the British early on. I'm thinking of the Roanoke colony, where the people who were left there "disappeared," leaving only some cryptic "Croatoan" marks on fenceposts. It's all but certain that they integrated with the Croatoan people on Ocracoke Island. There were other incidents of British integration, but I'm sure the French up north did that a lot more.
