The challenges that the White Colony faced in the late 1500s were the following: lack of available supplies, exposure to new diseases, dependence on American Indians and hostile relations with American Indians.
The City of Ralegh in Virginia was governed by John White with the help of 12 assistants. On January 7, 1587, this place was incorporated into England. A noteworthy aspect of John White’s colony was that the first child of English settlers was born there. On August 18, 1587, Elinor White Dare gave birth to her daughter, Virginia. She was the first baby born in American territory.
But White had to get back to England to bring new supplies and provisions but he could not return to the island because of many wars and conflicts with Spain that needed all the ships to wage war. He finally could return to Roanoke in August 1590 but the people had disappeared without a trace.
