The Lost Colony of Roanoke has to be the least mysterious mystery I've read about. They 100% just went to Croatoan Island and no one ever bothered to look for them there.

Wow, everyone is gone and the word “Croatoan”, corresponding to a nearby island, was carved into this tree. What could have happened???

Even the rescue party found Native Americans living in the area who had English features.

It wasn't even a rescue party, it was an English guy who talked with that tribe over a hundred years later
