- THE "LOST COLONY" OF ROANOKE TIMELINE
- Lead by John White, between 110 and 150 settlers arrive on Roanoke Island on the Chesapeake Bay.
- Difficulties quickly arise, and within a week of landing in Roanoke, an English colonist is killed by a native while fishing.
- John White's daughter, Eleanor, gives birth. The child is named Virginia and was the first English child born in America.
- Lacking supplies for the colony, John White is convinced to return to England. He plans to return to Roanoke as quickly as possible.
- No! I have to deal with the Spanish Armada!
- Due to a war with Spain, Queen Elizabeth refused to give White a ship to return. Despite begging, White would have to wait, knowing his colony desperately needed the supplies.
- After the defeat of the powerful naval fleet known as the Spanish Armada, White is finally able to return to his colony.
- CROATOAN
- ?
- White's return to the island is met with silence. The buildings and people of Roanoke are nowhere to be seen. The only thing remaining is a tree carved with the word "Croatoan".
