In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I share below my two known Mayflower lines. I've known about my descent from John Howland and Elizabeth and John Tilley (through my father) for quite awhile. A couple of years ago, I found that through my mother, I am descended from James Chilton.
Mayflower passenger names are bolded.
John Tilley (1571 - 1620) and Joan Hurst (about 1568 - 1621)
Elizabeth Tilley (1607 - 1687) and John Howland (1592 - 1673)
Desire Howland and John Gorham
Mercy Gorham and George Denison

Happy Thanksgiving to all!
Very nice-- I'm descended from John Billington (the first English colonist to be hanged for murder, heh) and Isaac Allerton.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving, Elizabeth!
Hi Elizabeth, my husband is descended from Isaac Allerton (via Mary, his daughter, actually) and through Degory Priest and Sarah Allerton. Small world! Thanks for your post,
