could have moved to Hatteras Island like you said and then spread diseases to the natives there that had no immunity to them, resulting in everyone dying.

Quite possible. Pocahontas died of TB, IIRC.......

The group may have split up with some going to Hatteras Island with the Croatan, and others moving camp to the shores of the Chowan River. If the account on the Dare Stone is accurate, 24 of the settlers died of disease and others died from war with the natives. The colonists both spread disease to the natives, leading to the natives to blame them for angering the spirits and killing them, while themselves dying of diseases caught from the natives.
