When Sir Walter Raleigh left, they disappeared.
Sir Walter Raleigh visited the settlement again after the end of the war but found a completely deserted area. There were no signs of struggle or violence and no message has been left behind. 90 Men, 17 women, and 11 children had just left the place without a trace. The bad weather prevented any attempt at further exploration.
No other attempts were ever made to find the missing people and the 'Lost Colony' remains a mystery to this day.
