Mayflower Day

Mayflower in Plymouth Harbor 

by William Halsall (1882)

Mayflower Day celebrates the date the Mayflower sailed from Plymouth, England to America. On September 16, 1620 (389 years ago) 102 men, women and children set sail from Plymouth, England.  Their destination was the New World, where they could have religious freedom and continue using their native language, culture and customs.

Our ancestors William Bradford and William Brewster  were amongst the passengers on the Mayflower (click on their names above for pictures and other information about each of them).  We are related to them on dad's line:  Gary Evans - Sam Evans - Myra Mayall Henrie - Samuel Henrie - Rhoana Hatch - Wealtha Bradford - Simeon Bradford - Waite Bradford - Ephriam Bradford & Elizabeth Brewster.  Epriam Bradford - William Bradford - William Bradford of the Mayflower & Elizabeth Brewster - Wrestling Brewster - Love Brewster (on the Mayflower, too) - William Brewster of the Mayflower.

Thanks for the information, Mom!
