Virginia Dare and Virginia Laydon

Virginia Dare is the first person to be born in the New World having English ancestry.

Besides, another female figure with Virginia as her given name, who is Virginia Laydon, is the second English-descented person born in the New World and the first born in Jamestown.

Having been born to English parents, who were part of Sir Walter Raleigh's exhibition to establish the Roanoke colony, Virginia Dare vanished, however, as well as the colony itself.

As for Jamestown, it won its survival, as did Virginia Laydon, who became a significant later figure in establishing the English-descented population in North America. 

The Roanoke colony is one of the failed attempts by Sir Walter Raleigh to establish the first permanent English settlement in North America.

Jamestown, conversely, is the first permanent English settlement in North America.

For Virginia Laydon's parents, they wed in Jamestown, the first recording English wedding to be taken place in this colony.
