No. 1. BAPTISM OF VIRGINIA DARE. The first white
child of English-speaking parents born in America, August 18,
1587. Her mother, wife of Ananias Dare, was the daughter
of Governor White, head of the colony founded by Sir Walter
Raleigh on Roanoke Island, North Carolina, in 1587. This
colony, consisting of eighty-nine men, seventeen women
and eleven children, during the absence of the Governor,
who had gone to England for supplies, disappeared comple-
tely in 1590, and was never seen or heard of again.
