C. Roanoke
Also known as the Lost Colony it was established in 1585.
An estimated 115 English settlers had come to Roanoke island, along with relatives of John White who became the governor of the new colony.
John White left for England to gather supplies, but couldn’t come back to Roanoke until three years later at 1590 due to a naval battle that postponed his return.
When he arrived back at the island, there was no trace of inhabitants, but only a single word carved into a wooden post/tree—
“croatoan”
