Sir Humphrey Gilbert was the first Englishman to send colonist to the New World. his initial expedition. which sailed in 1578 with a patent granted by Queen Elizabeth was defeated by the4 Spanish. A second attempt ended in disaster in 1583, when Gilbert and his ship were lost in a storm in the following year, Gilberts half brother, Sir Water Raleigh, having obtained a renewal of the patent, sponsored an expedition that explored the coast of the region that he named "Virginia". Under Raleigh's direction efforts were then made to establish a colony on Roanoke Island in 1585 and 1587. The survivors of the first settlement on Roanoke Returned to England in 1586, but the second group of colonists disappeared without leaving a trace.
