Does Devil's Tower really qualify as a "volcano"?
“Although magma formed Devils Tower, it was probably never part of a volcano.” [1]

There are lava flows from ancient rifts, dating to the separation of North America from Pangaea, all over the East Coast, for instance the Connecticut River Valley.
For active volcano, see Iceland or Montserrat or Yellowstone.
