When Governor John White sailed for England from Roanoke Island in August 1587, he left behind more than 100 men, women and children. They were never seen again by Europeans.

New research suggests that all past and present theories are based upon a series of erroneous assumptions that have persisted for centuries.

What emerges is a fresh narrative of the ultimate fate of the Lost Colony.
