Bertie, Peregrine -- 1585-1586 Military Colony - Associated with venture, not necessarily passengers 

 

Raleigh's First Colony, 1585-86
Raleigh sent a colony of 108 persons to Roanoke Island. The expedition, commanded by Raleigh's cousin, Sir Richard Grenville, sailed from Plymouth, England, on April 9, 1585, in seven ships, the largest of which was of 140 tons' burthen.
It is believed that Peregrine Bertie was Included in the group. He may have just done some financing.

Peregrine Bertie, 13th Baron Willoughby de Eresby - commander-in-chief of Queen Elizabeth's forces in the Low Countries, and in France : and governor of Berwick.

from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peregrine_Bertie,_13th_Baron_Willoughby_de_Eresby 


Peregrine Bertie, 13th Baron Willoughby de Eresby (1555 - 1601) was the son of Richard Bertie and Katherine Willoughby, 12th Baroness Willoughby de Eresby. Richard was Katherine's second husband, the first being Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk. His half-brothers, Henry and Charles Brandon, died as teenagers. His sister, Susan Bertie, countess of Kent married the Earl of Kent and then the son of Bess of Hardwick. Owing to religious politics, the parents had to move outside England and the boy was born at Wesel on the River Rhine.
Born on 12 October, 1555, he was baptized at the church of Saint Willibrord on 14th October. On Elizabeth's accession to the throne in 1558, his parents returned to England and applied for a patent of naturalization for him. He formally became English on 2 August 1559. In the later 1570s he married Mary de Vere, daughter of the Earl of Oxford. When his mother died in 1580, he applied to assume her title and he took his seat in the House of Lords on 16 January 1580.
