The distance from Jamestown, Virginia, to Roanoke Island, North Carolina, is approximately 120 miles (193 kilometers) when traveling by road. If measuring in a straight line (as the crow flies), the distance is roughly 100 miles (161 kilometers). Travel time may vary depending on the route and mode of transportation.
Ralegh's settlement in what is now North Carolina was on Roanoke Island. It became known as 'the lost colony'. It was designated the Cittie of Ralegh, but the name never quite took hold because the colony failed.
Yes it is in Dare County. It was the site of Sir Walter Raleigh's Lost Colony in Virginia Colony. It should not be confused with the city of Roanoke Virginia which did not exist until much later.

The king didn’t send the men to Jamestown, but the London Company did and they were investors who wanted them to find gold. There was no gold there and the men placed the fort on the worse land in the area. It was in an Native American empire of 15,000, had bad water, mosquitoes that carried disease and the men didn’t prepare the land for crops. Of the 104 who arrived within 6 months there were only 34 alive. Jamestown was never meant to be a permanent colony and it was pretty much a failure at first.
Corfu, an island in Greece, has a total area of about 229 square miles.
Delaware has 2,490 square miles and Rhode Island 1,545 square miles, so Delaware is about half again as large as Rhode Island.
Alabama has 52,419 square miles. Rhode Island has 1,214 square miles. Alabama is therefore much larger.
The English colonists on Roanoke Island in 1587, known as the "Lost Colony," mysteriously disappeared. There were no signs of struggle or violence, leading to much speculation and mystery about their fate. The only clue left was the word "CROATOAN" carved into a post, hinting that they may have sought refuge with the local Native American tribe, the Croatoans.

Native Americans did much of the farming. The Jamestown settlers were slow to learn how to farm in the new world.
