Think of Jamestown. ( the early settlement?)

They died out didn't they? And no trace was found when the next boat
arrived.

There was a programme about what happened to Jamestown on UK television a couple
of years ago. Apparently the latest consensus among historians is that the
settlers were poisoned by the Spanish, who feared a British presence in the new
world.

Jamestown survived. You're thinking of Roanoke, some 20 years earlier. :-)
