England tried to establish a colony at Roanoke, Virginia. 115 colonists were left there while ships went back to England to bring back necessary supplies. By the time the next supply ships arrived, three years later, all the settlers had disappeared without leaving any clue to their fate other than the word "CROATOAN" carved into a wooden post.
England. :D
The Lost Colony came from England?
The colonist were sent to England, but when they came back, no one was there. Instead, there was a carving. It was: CRA.
Please note that the Lost Colony was a colony, so if they survived, there would probably be another colony where it was. Maybe it was Roanoke, I forget and I don't have my social studies book with me. . . Ok maybe they would still be a colony today but since they are all dead. . . Oh well! Go on Google and type in "The Lost Colony" and see what comes up and maybe that will help you learn more about their mysterious dissapearence. Good Luck!!!!!!
The lost colony refers to the 1587 colony that tried to settle on Roanoke Island in what is now North Carolina.
England. :D

Mary Bryant (1765- ?) was a Cornish convict sent to Australia. She became one of the first successful escapees from the fledging Australian penal colony. Australia is a self-contained country, but Mary Bryant would have been sent to the New South Wales colony, as it was the only one established at the time of her internment.

No country can be a colony, otherwise it wouldn't be a country.
John Smith was sent from England to help save (rebuild) the James Town Colony. He sent more men to work and because of this, John Smith made Jamestown the First Successful colony.
The Roanoke Colony was established in 1585 on Roanoke Island in present-day North Carolina. The initial group sent by Sir Walter Raleigh returned to England, and a second group arrived in 1587, only to mysteriously disappear by 1590, leading to the colony being known as the "Lost Colony."
No, convicts were never sent to South Australia. Originally, they were not going to be sent to Western Australia (the Swan River colony) either, but the residents of that colony asked for convict labour - hence the change.
Sir Walter Raleigh sent another group of men to explore and find a colony on the Chesapeake Bay. First they went to the lost colony (roanoke island) to pick of the men there, and found nothing
Sir Walter Raleigh founded the 'Lost Colony of Roanoke' in 1587.
