Best Answer

If you mean the 1587 voyage, approximately 117 (figures vary) men, women and children arrived on Roanoke Island in 1587.

There were two earlier voyages in 1584 and 1585 but these involved men only. The 1584 voyage had only a few explorers, the 1585 voyage had about 700, but only 108 of these were colonists.

The good, the bad and the indifferent. The rich, the poor and the very poor. The ignorant, the intellectuals and the very ignorant or if you choose they might even be called the totally stupid. Some resided there because they were enslaved and as such their intellectual capacity was not relevant. The Native Americans but unless useful they also were not relevant.
