E.C.-23 WATERSIDE THEATRE, FAMOUS FOR "THE LOST COLONY" HISTORICAL DRAMA, ROANOKE ISLAND, N.C.
E.5770
Back:
In 1587 the first English colony in America
was founded on Roanoke Island, which at that
time was a part of Virginia, but is now in
North Carolina. It is the birthplace of Virginia
Dare, the first white child born in America.
The fate of these colonists still remains a
mystery for it is unknown whether they were
exterminated by the Spaniards, massacred by
the Indians, or what happened to them. The
fort of "The Lost Colony” has been restored
as it is thought to have been over 350 years
ago.
