Raleigh
The Lost Colony
A few miles. That island isn't that big.
i think it was Raleigh because he was responsible for the settlement
The Roanoke Island Settlement was planned and supported by Sir Walter Raleigh. He received a charter from Queen Elizabeth I of England to establish a colony in the New World and sent an expedition to Roanoke Island in 1585. However, subsequent attempts to establish a permanent settlement on Roanoke Island were unsuccessful.

To the west of Roanoke Island is the mainland of North Carolina, specifically the town of Manteo. Beyond that are the Outer Banks barrier islands that stretch along the coast of North Carolina.
