What island did they send John the Baptist to?
John the Baptist wasn't sent to an island; he was imprisoned (and later beheaded) by Herod Antipas, the son of Herod the Great. See Mark chapter 6 or parallel accounts. The Apostle John was exiled to the Mediterranean island of Patmos, where he wrote the Book of Revelation (Revelation 1:9). [Some contemporary accounts maintain that the author could be some other John, but there is no compelling reason to think that the writer might be other than the apostle.] ---- I do not believe he was sent to an island, and he was beheaded. You may be referring to John one of Jesus' disciples who was sent to the island of Patmoswhere he wrote Revelations the last book of the Bible.

Was John's Gospel written by John the Baptist?
A:We know nothing about the author of Revelation, except that his name was John. At one stage, it was thought that he was the apostle John, but that is no longer the view of scholars. According to the Jewish historian, Josephus, it appears that John the Baptist died in 35 or very early in 36 CE, far too early to have written the Book of Revelation, which appears to have been written no earlier than the end of the century.Answer:Professor J.M. Ford, who wrote the entry on REVELATION for the "Anchor Bible Commentary," is among a minority of scholars who claim that John the Baptist wrote REVELATION, or at least REVELATION chapters 4 through 11. Although John the Baptist died before Jesus died, that is irrelevant, since John's writings could easily have been preserved for generations. The tell-tale markings, for Ford, are the Jewish end-of-world ideas that flourish in the book, and the hope for The One to Come, along with harsh words for the current generation. This matches the preaching of John the Baptist to a "T".
Did John the Baptist write the book of John and 2 John?
