Virginia Dare-The First English Child

Virginia Dare-The First English Child

This episode Auntie Jo Jo will be telling you her own story about the first English child, Virginia Dare. Virginia was born to the Roanoke Colony in the Americas in 1587. Her colony is considered lost and is best known as the "Lost Colony". The governor of the Lost Colony, John White returned three years after Virginia's birth to find little to no clues about the fate of this colony.
