Ralegh organised and sponsored the first two voyages to Roanoke Island, in what is now North Carolina, in 1584 and 1585/86. The 1587 colony, popularly known as "the lost colony" was indirectly connected to Ralegh but he had no direct financial interest in it. Ralegh did not accompany any of the three Roanoke voyages, and he never traveled to North America. The only real attempt at colonisation, involving men, women, and boys, was the 1587 colony.
