It’s what we are about and a Celebrang 4 membership few hours of a day is all it takes to parcipate. Now In Memoriam 6 Christmas is soon approaching and I wish you all a meaningful holiday. Book Donaons 6 At this me, I would like to share my Mayflower Heritage Tour Adventure with you. I toured England Mayflower 7 History and Holland with emphasis on Mayflower origin sites. Scholarship 8 There were 43 of us, some Mayflower descendants, Winner some just friends. I was excited about the trip even 2020 Hindsight 10 though I was going to sites in England connected to YOUR ancestors, not mine. My George Soule is sll somewhat of a mystery. Colony 11 Chronicles All Saints Church in Babworth, Nonghamshire was where Richard Clyon preached. Schedule of 15 The church is now in a secluded area. Approximately 12 miles away is St. Helena’s Events Church in Austerfield, Yorkshire, home church of William Bradford. The church is over 1,000 years old and sll contains the bapsmal font used for William Bradford’s bapsm in 1599. William Bradford walked the 12 miles to services in Babworth. Scrooby Manor, which was built in the late 1500’s, consisted of just a small secon of the original building. We were able to view the outside of the manor house with guide Sue Allan. The manor was surrounded by fields doed with cale and sheep. Our group moved on the Gainsborough Old Hall in Gainsborough Lincolnshire to get an idea of what Scrooby Manor used to be like in the 1500’s.

Those of us on the Communicaons Commiee are excited to announce that Ohio Mayflower webmaster. Shaun Smith, converted our website to the new format the end of October. If you have not seen it yet, go to www.ohiomayflower.org and check it out! This is sll a work in progress as the Colony pages need to be fleshed out and more content added. You can find contact informaon for your state and colony officers, as well as forms to start supplemental applicaons, sponsor junior members or gi membership for a family member. Note the new blog which is a place for all colonies to share their news and acvies. Shaun did a great job for all of us! **************************************** We are also excited about bringing more members into the Ohio Society as we get closer to 2020. I do have a caveat though. If you are sponsoring family members, please make sure they really want to be members. I hate to see you put in your me, effort and money for applicaons for family members who drop out as soon as they become responsible for paying dues. This is also true for junior members converng to full membership ‐ each one of these applicaons costs your Ohio Society almost $100.00. We get very discouraged when these kids immediately drop out! We want your family ‐ but we want them to want us! This is a great me for you to look at adding supplemental applicaons to your Mayflower porolio! Look at the copy of your approved applicaon ‐ if you see more than one MF or MFIP citaon for any event, then you have possible supplementals. Please contact me at OHMayfl[email protected] or Lee at BuckeyeMayfl[email protected] for help finding your other pilgrim ancestors! On 12 November 2017, at the Skyland Pine Rusc Lodge, in Canton, Ohio, the Western Reserve Colony held their Compact Day luncheon. An hour before the luncheon, a social was held to allow people to look at displays, buy items for sale to help with restoraon of the Mayflower and with the 2020 commemoraon. The lunch consisted of turkey with stuffing, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes and gravy. er a good meal, Roger Marble gave his presentaon further research in genealogy. Much of what Roger presented is well known such as double‐checking facts, cing sources, and draw on a variety of sources to make sound conclusions. What was new, however, was he challenged us to look further in‐depth in the lives of our ancestors and challenged all of us to look beyond sources here in the States, even going so far as to examining possible Magna Carta lines. With the challenge, Roger gave the caveat, that not all the children of the Magna Carta barons le descendants. For me, I examined my Magna Carta line and found one ancestor – John Hawes. John Hawes married Desire Gorham, the granddaughter of John Howland. John Hawes and his father Edmund are listed in Douglas Richardson’s book, Magna Carta Ancestry: A Study in Colonial and Medieval Families and in Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial and Medieval Families by Douglas Richardson and Kimball G. Everingham. The Royal Ancestry series consists of five volumes that duplicates, amplifies, and extends the Magna Carta lines to William the Conqueror, then, back to Charlemagne, through a series of appendices. Several Hawes’ are buried in Ancient Cemetery in Yarmouth Port, Massachuses.

    James Chilton: English background "James Chilton, tailor, was listed as a freeman of Canterbury in 1583. He married before 1587 just possibly Susanna Furner, daughter of his step-mother and her first husband Francis Furner. Seven children were baptized in Canterbury to James, then about 1600 the family moved to neighboring Sandwich where three more children were baptized, including youngest daughter Mary, who was baptized at St. Peter's in 1607."

    On-Site Historical Reenactment As Historiographic Operation at Plimoth Plantation

    Fall2002 107 Recreation and Re-Creation: On-Site Historical Reenactment as Historiographic Operation at Plimoth Plantation Scott Magelssen Plimoth Plantation, a Massachusetts living history museum depicting the year 1627 in Plymouth Colony, advertises itself as a place where "history comes alive." The site uses costumed Pilgrims, who speak to visitors in a first-person­ presentvoice, in order to create a total living environment. Reenactment practices like this offer possibilities to teach history in a dynamic manner by immersing visitors in a space that allows them to suspend disbelief and encounter museum exhibits on an affective level. However, whether or not history actually "comes alive"at Plimoth Plantation needs to be addressed, especially in the face of new or postmodem historiography. No longer is it so simple to say the past can "come alive," given that in the last thirty years it has been shown that the "past" is contestable. A case in point, I argue, is the portrayal of Wampanoag Natives at Plimoth Plantation's "Hobbamock's Homesite." Here, the Native Wampanoag Interpretation Program refuses tojoin their Pilgrim counterparts in using first person interpretation, choosing instead to address visitors in their own voices. For the Native Interpreters, speaking in seventeenth-century voices would disallow presentationoftheir own accounts ofthe way colonists treated native peoples after 1627. Yet, from what I have learned in recent interviews with Plimoth's Public Relations Department, plans are underway to address the disparity in interpretive modes between the Pilgrim Village and Hobbamock's Homesite by introducing first person programming in the latter. I Coming from a theatre history and theory background, and looking back on three years of research at Plimoth and other living history museums, I would like to trouble this attempt to smooth over the differences between the two sites.

    This Short History of the Alden Property Was Written by Curator James W

    The Alden Kindred of America, Inc. · Alden House Historic Site This short history of the Alden property was written by Curator James W. Baker, and is a revised version of that published in Alden House History: A Work in Progress (Duxbury, 2006). ______________________________________________________________________________ The Alden Kindred of America and Charles L. Alden The increasing interest in colonial history and genealogy in the 1890s that lead to the establishment of the Mayflower Descendant societies also inspired the founding of the Alden Kindred. Miss A. Ella Alden of Middleboro conducted a correspondence campaign with as many Aldens as she could identify, urging them to attend a family reunion on September 11, 1901. About 150 people were at that first gathering in Highland Park in Avon, Massachusetts, when the decision was made to create a permanent organization, the Alden Kindred of America. The second reunion in 1902 was at the Alden house in Duxbury at the invitation of John W. Alden. In 1905, the Alden Kindred began a discussion about acquiring the property, which now consisted of about 2.7 acres. Nothing changed after the Kindred purchased the house in 1907, and John W. and Sylvia Alden continued to live there until 1920. John W. Alden worked as a gate tender for the railroad for many years. He had an avid interest in music, and even published popular musical compositions. He taught his children to play different instruments. “Sometimes while the family still occupied the Alden House, the place would jump with music. [John’s daughter] Sylvie, her dad and her brothers having another of their “jazz” sessions with piano, drums, flute and clarinet.” (Patriot Ledger, Nov.

    William Bradford's Life and Influence Have Been Chronicled by Many. As the Co-Author of Mourt's Relation, the Author of of Plymo

    William Bradford's life and influence have been chronicled by many. As the co-author of Mourt's Relation, the author of Of Plymouth Plantation, and the long-term governor of Plymouth Colony, his documented activities are vast in scope. The success of the Plymouth Colony is largely due to his remarkable ability to manage men and affairs. The information presented here will not attempt to recreate all of his activities. Instead, we will present: a portion of the biography of William Bradford written by Cotton Mather and originally published in 1702, a further reading list, selected texts which may not be usually found in other publications, and information about items related to William Bradford which may be found in Pilgrim Hall Museum. Cotton Mather's Life of William Bradford (originally published 1702) "Among those devout people was our William Bradford, who was born Anno 1588 in an obscure village called Ansterfield... he had a comfortable inheritance left him of his honest parents, who died while he was yet a child, and cast him on the education, first of his grand parents, and then of his uncles, who devoted him, like his ancestors, unto the affairs of husbandry. Soon a long sickness kept him, as he would afterwards thankfully say, from the vanities of youth, and made him the fitter for what he was afterwards to undergo. When he was about a dozen years old, the reading of the Scripture began to cause great impressions upon him; and those impressions were much assisted and improved, when he came to enjoy Mr.
