O Some Lumbee Indians have light complexions and
blue eyes.
O Scientists plan to do DNA testing on the Lumbee
Indians to determine whether they are related to the
colonists.
It seems likely that some, if not all, of the colonists went
to live among the native peoples of the Outer Banks. John
White believed that they had gone to live with the
Hatteras (Croatan) Indians under Manteo. Many Lumbee
now living in Robeson County believe that they are
descended in part from the Roanoke colonists and the
Hatteras Indians. They cite their light complexions, blue
eyes, and names that are the same as the names of the
Roanoke colonists. Some historians and anthropologists
agree that this is likely true, but there is no hard
evidence. Some attempts are now being planned to use
DNA testing to determine whether the Lumbee are, in
fact, descended from the Lost Colonists.
