I think the colonists commited atrocities among themselves like murder and canabalism due to the isolation of the region and depletion of supplies.

The maiden story at the end is a nice touch :)

The ranger’s theories seem very plausible.

I wonder what happened to those people.

What if they were moved away by some group of people? Their bodies could be anywhere. It’s possible someone has found their bones somewhere, not near Roanoke, and not been able to identify them. I think the Indians had something the do with it though. Roanoke and Croatoan are both Indian names.

@BearWoodward It’s a good [if not sad] theory; but I think there would have been some evidence. And, from all my research on this group, there doesn’t seem to be anything but the stockade, a thinly carved post and possibly a rock or two. But, you could be right, it happened to the Donner Party :-(

what if they merged together with the croatoan indians? they could have asked to join with them, taken down their houses and cleared the site, and left the word CROATOAN on the tree so that when white returned he would know their whereabouts. Just a thought to consider
