The Roanoke Colony, also known as the Lost Colony, was established in 1585 on Roanoke Island in what is today's Dare County, North Carolina. It was a late 16th-century attempt by Queen Elizabeth I to establish a permanent English settlement in North America. The colony was founded by Sir Walter Raleigh.hope this helped

It was located on Roanoke island. That was just off the coast North Carolina.
North Carolina was part of Virginia at this time.

Hope this helps:)
