Sir Walter Raleigh, an adventurous English gentleman, sent a group of men to explore the New World. A later expedition established a settlement on Roanoke Island, on the North Carolina coast. In 1586, after enduring winter hardships, lack of food, and disagreements with the Indians, survivors of this colony returned home to England with Sir Francis Drake.

  • US History- Sweeney
    ©Java Stitch Creations, 2015 Part 1: The Roanoke Colony-Background Information What is now known as the lost Roanoke Colony, was actually the third English attempt at colonizing the eastern shores of the United States. Following through with his family's thirst for exploration, Queen Elizabeth I of England granted Sir Walter Raleigh a royal charter in 1584. This charter gave him seven years to establish a settlement, and allowed him the power to explore, colonize and rnle, in return for one-fifth of all the gold and silver mined in the new lands. Raleigh immediately hired navigators Philip Amadas and Arthur Barlowe to head an expedition to the intended destination of the Chesapeake Bay area. This area was sought due to it being far from the Spanish-dominated Florida colonies, and it had milder weather than the more northern regions. In July of that year, they landed on Roanoke Island. They explored the area, made contact with Native Americans, and then sailed back to England to prove their findings to Sir Walter Raleigh. Also sailing from Roanoke were two members oflocal tribes of Native Americans, Manteo (son of a Croatoan) and Wanchese (a Roanoke). Amadas' and Barlowe's positive report, and Native American assistance, earned the blessing of Sir Walter Raleigh to establish a colony. In 1585, a second expedition of seven ships of colonists and supplies, were sent to Roanoke. The settlement was somewhat successful, however, they had poor relations with the local Native Americans and repeatedly experienced food shortages. Only a year after arriving, most of the colonists left.

  • May 2020 440 the JOURNAL of SOUTHERN HISTORY Elimination
    Book Reviews Native Southerners: Indigenous History from Origins to Removal. By Gregory D. Smithers. (Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 2019. Pp. x, 259. Paper, $29.95, ISBN 978-0-8061-6228-7.) Gregory D. Smithers attempts to do what most historians would consider impossible: write the history of a vast region, home to numerous and diverse Native communities; cover a broad sweep of time, from Indigenous origins to the 1830s; incorporate Native voices and perspectives, not as relics of the past, but as living stories that give the region a deeper meaning; and do so in less than two hundred pages of text. One would have to go back to at least the publication of J. Leitch Wright’s The Only Land They Knew: The Tragic Story of the American Indians in the Old South (New York, 1981) to find a similar un- dertaking, but Wright focuses mostly on the period before the American Revolution. One would really have to go back to R. S. Cotterill’s The Southern Indians: The Story of the Civilized Tribes before Removal (Norman, Okla., 1954). But these books cannot compare with what Smithers has managed to accomplish. Smithers skillfully utilizes an immense library of books and articles that have been produced over the past few decades. Archaeologists, historians, and anthropologists, often with a spirit of mutual interest and collaboration, have investigated a seemingly exponential number of new questions and topics. Scholars now know more about the nature of the chiefdom societies that dominated the South before Europeans arrived: we appreciate how they had history before that arrival; how they crafted stories and practices to sustain themselves in a changing environment; and how they went through cycles of growing, devolving, and rebuilding.

  • Orígenes De Las Trece Colonias: Las Primeras Fundaciones Británicas En
    Facultad de Humanidades: Departamento de Geografía e Historia Grado en Historia Curso académico: 2020-2021 Orígenes de las Trece Colonias: Las Primeras Fundaciones Británicas en América del Norte Trabajo realizado por: Laura González Sanabria Dirigido por: Manuel Vicente Hernández González RESUMEN Este trabajo de fin de grado cubre una revisión bibliográfica e historiográfica de las primeras fundaciones británicas en América del Norte. Utilizando bibliografía española y anglosajona, este trabajo pretende realizar un análisis sobre la naturaleza de las primeras Trece Colonias, agrupando sus modelos de colonización y su evolución en tres zonas geográficas. Se examinan, además, los factores principales que propiciaron el afán colonizador del reino de Inglaterra y de sus habitantes, incluyendo los aportes religiosos y económicos de grupos como puritanos o cuáqueros. Los resultados de este análisis, así como sus conclusiones, versan sobre un modelo que se repite constantemente pero que cuenta con variaciones según las particularidades de cada fundación. Palabras clave: Colonización británica; Trece Colonias; siglo XVII; siglo XVIII; compañías privilegiadas; Colonia perdida de Roanoke; Chesapeake; Nueva Inglaterra; cuáqueros; puritanos. ABSTRACT This dissertation covers a bibliographic and historiographical evaluation of the first British foundations in North America. With the help of Spanish and English bibliography, this work aims to carry out an analysis about the nature of the first Thirteen Colonies, gathering their colonization models and their evolution in three geographical areas. It also examines all the main factors that led to the eagerness of the kingdom of England and its inhabitants of colonizing, as well as religious and economic contributions of congregations such as Puritans or Quakers.

  • The Lost Colony of Roanoke
    2014-2015 The Lost Colony of Roanoke: A Brief Introduction OSHO Mathijs Meert 5C Koen De Keersmaeker Koen Vorsters 5C Foreword The lost colony of Roanoke is a subject that fascinated numerous people for the last couple of decades. Countless researchers, both famous professors and amateuristic historians, have searched for clues that could unravel the mystery surrounding the lost colonists once and for all. Unfortunately they have failed. Clues have been found, theories have been thought up and occasionally a researcher declared that he solved the mystery, only to retract his statement due to lack of evidence. Our goal is not to do what many have tried to do. Our goal is not to unravel the mystery. Our goal is to inform the reader about the colony and to present some possible explanations. We would like to thank Fred Willard for answering some of our questions. Mister Willard is the founder of The Lost Colony Center for Science and Research, a corporation conducting archaeological and historical research in order to find out what happened to the colony. We would also like to refer anyone who is interested in the colony to their website ( www.lost-colony.com ) for further information.

  • Produced by the ROANOKE ISLAND HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION, INC
    Produced by the ROANOKE ISLAND HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION, INC. The Lost Colony is produced by the Roanoke Island Historical Association, Inc. (RIHA). It is Ameri- ca's longest running symphonic outdoor drama, located on Roanoke Island on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. We are a non-profit historical and educational corporation as identified by Section 501 (c) 3 of the Internal Revenue Service Code. Since 1937, RIHA has produced The Lost Colony to celebrate the history of the first permanent English colony on Roanoke Island, North Carolina (1587), through drama, education, and literature. Our compelling story of vision, determination, and inspiration recounts the trials and tribulations of England's first attempts to colonize the New World and their interactions with the Native Americans. We present the drama, written by North Carolina’s Pulitzer Prize winner Paul Green, each summer (June through August) at the Waterside Theatre at Fort Raleigh National Historic Site operated by the National Park Service Outer Banks Group. The Lost Colony is supported by admissions, memberships, contributions, corporate sponsorships, grants, state and local funds, a generous corps of volunteers, and the cooperation of the National Park Service. The experience of our theatre patrons is our first priority. Our story is brought to life each summer by talented and impassioned actors and technicians and enhanced by our beautiful setting on Roanoke Sound, where the actual events of history took place over 400 years ago.
