Early Expeditions: the Roanoke Voyages

Walter Raleigh Raleigh was a wealthy adventurer from England inspired by the discoveries of Spanish and French explorers He dreamed of establishing English settlements in North America Although Raleigh never traveled to the New World, he devoted much of his life and fortune to trying to establish an English nation there.

Raleigh’s Dreams Become Reality In March of 1584, Raleigh received a charter from Queen Elizabeth He was given permission “to discover and inhabit strange places” Before sending settlers, Raleigh decided to send a small exploratory expedition to study and report on the region.

Amadas and Barlowe 2-ship fleet began voyage April 1584 Stopped near what is now Roanoke Island Claimed land 600 miles north and 600 miles south for Queen Elizabeth

Amadas and Barlowe The expedition received a friendly welcome from the natives who offered shelter and traded goods with them They spent six weeks exploring, and returned to England with: Notebooks Plant samples Two natives – Manteo and Wanchese

Back in England Members of the expedition gave Queen Elizabeth a glowing report, and urged the Queen to start colonies in North America. Walter Raleigh was knighted Sir Walter Raleigh

The Ralph Lane Colony Goal – establish a lasting English settlement in North America 7 ships and 107 men left England in April, 1585.

The Ralph Lane Colony Members of the expedition included: Sir Richard Grenville – fleet commander Thomas Harriot – scientist John White – artist Ralph Lane – governor of colony Manteo and Wanchese

The Ralph Lane Colony Colonists arrived at Roanoke Island in June 1585. Grenville returned to England for supplies 3 small groups set out exploring Harriot gathered information from Natives and recorded his observations White painted watercolor pictures - plants, animals, and details of Natives and their different ways of life Harriot and White also surveyed land and made maps.

Trouble for the Ralph Lane Colony Winter approaching – food running out Colonists unhappy with Lane as governor – too militaristic Conflict with Natives – colonists raided a Native village and killed the chief Colonists abandoned the colony and returned to England.
