Our Mission....Is to gather as much data as possible to prove that at least some of the colonists did in fact survive as?
has been suggested by numerous historical accounts, possibly having assimilated into the indigenous tribes
of the area or having been taken captive, or both. As the various tribes moved inland, the colonists would have moved?
with them. If the colonists were enslaved, they could have been sold or traded and not remained as a group, being?
scattered to various locations.

Our research group will be working to connect the genealogies with the historical records and genetic results from?
individuals who are likely candidates to be descendants of the Lost Colonists. We have assembled names of interest that are?
compiled from the Lost Colony settlers and also from the early families found in the areas where the colonists are believed to?
have settled. Early land transactions and grants reference individuals with many of these last names as Indians.

Possible candidates to be connected to the Lost Colony come from the following groups of individuals:

1. Those who have any of the surnames of interest and whose genealogy ends abruptly early in Eastern VA or NC.
2. Those who connect via any of these surnames to the British Isles.
3. Those whose family has an oral history of being connected to the Lost Colony.
4. Those with Native American heritage from Eastern or early NC or VA.
