Ralegh never accompanied any of the Roanoke voyages. In 1584 Ralegh and his investors sent two barks under the command of Philip Amadas and Arthur Barlowe to discover a suitable place for establishing a military bastion in the New World. The explorers found what they considered to be an ideal location--Roanoke Island in what is now North Carolina. In 1585 Ralegh and his backers sent a colony of 108 men to establish a military settlement on Roanoke Island. In 1587 a group of men, women and boys under the leadership of John White left England to plant a colony on the Chesapeake. They were put off at Roanoke Island. Ralegh's personal interest in this colony was restricted to the use of his name for the settlement. He assisted in the organization of the voyage, and certainly used his influence to facilitate matters, but that was the extent of his interest in the 1587 voyage. This colony became known as the lost colony. Ralegh never came to North America.
