The Lost Colony Wasn't Lost — It Became These 8 Surnames
In 1590, an English governor returned to Roanoke Island and found it completely empty. No houses, no people, no trace of the 115 colonists who had lived there — just one word carved into a fence post. For four hundred years we've called them the Lost Colony. But what if they were never actually lost? In this episode we trace eight surnames from the original colonist roster all the way to families living in North Carolina today, ranking the evidence from weakest to most convincing. One of those names might be sitting in your own family tree right now.
