Children on the Mayflower
PILGRIM HALL MUSEUM America’s Oldest Continuous Museum – Located in Historic Plymouth Massachusetts www.pilgrimhallmuseum.org CHILDREN ON THE MAYFLOWER How many children were on the Mayflower? This seems like an easy question but it is hard to answer! Let’s say we wanted to count every passenger on the ship who was 18 years of age or younger. To figure out how old a person was in 1620, when the Mayflower voyage took place, you would need to know their date of birth. In some cases, though, there just isn’t enough information! On this list, we’ve included passengers who were probably or possibly age 18 or less. Some children were traveling with their families. Others came over as servants or apprentices. Still others were wards, or children in the care of guardians. There are 35 young people on the list. Some of them may have been very close to adulthood, like the servant Dorothy (last name unknown), who was married in the early years of Plymouth Colony. The list also includes Will Butten. He was a youth who died during the voyage and never arrived to see land. This list includes very young children and even some babies! Oceanus Hopkins was born during the Mayflower’s voyage across the Atlantic. The baby was given his unusual name as a result. Another boy, Peregrine White, was born aboard the ship while it was anchored at Cape Cod harbor - his name means traveler or “pilgrim.” A good source for more information on Mayflower passengers is Caleb Johnson’s http://mayflowerhistory.com/mayflower- passenger-list. -

CHILDREN on the MAYFLOWER by Ruth Godfrey Donovan
CHILDREN ON THE MAYFLOWER by Ruth Godfrey Donovan The "Mayflower" sailed from Plymouth, England, September 6, 1620, with 102 people aboard. Among the passengers standing at the rail, waving good-bye to relatives and friends, were at least thirty children. They ranged in age from Samuel Eaton, a babe in arms, to Mary Chilton and Constance Hopkins, fifteen years old. They were brought aboard for different reasons. Some of their parents or guardians were seeking religious freedom. Others were searching for a better life than they had in England or Holland. Some of the children were there as servants. Every one of the youngsters survived the strenuous voyage of three months. As the "Mayflower" made its way across the Atlantic, perhaps they frolicked and played on the decks during clear days. They must have clung to their mothers' skirts during the fierce gales the ship encountered on other days. Some of their names sound odd today. There were eight-year-old Humility Cooper, six-year-old Wrestling Brewster, and nine-year-old Love Brewster. Resolved White was five, while Damans Hopkins was only three. Other names sound more familiar. Among the eight-year- olds were John Cooke and Francis Billington. John Billington, Jr. was six years old as was Joseph Mullins. Richard More was seven years old and Samuel Fuller was four. Mary Allerton, who was destined to outlive all others aboard, was also four. She lived to the age of eighty-three. The Billington boys were the mischief-makers. Evidently weary of the everyday pastimes, Francis and John, Jr. -

Notes for WILLIAM BREWSTER: William and Mary Brewster arrived to America on the Mayflower in 1620 Love Brewster(son) and Wrestling Brewster (son) along with 2 sevent boys came over on the Mayflower. William Brewster, who came later to America, was for many years postmaster at Scrooby, a little village on the great North road about fifty miles from London. Nowadays a postmaster has mainly to do with letters and parcels and money orders, but three hundred years ago he had to do almost entirely with horses. Letters then posted were mainly governmental correspondence, sent by members of the Court. He did not live in a little house on a side street, but had a grand mansion called Scrooby Manor with a large brick stable and his duty was to supply horses to all travelers who desired to hire them. -

AN ADDRESS DELIVERED AT €l)e CtDO i^untireD ann fifttetl) annitierjsarF OF THE INCORPORATION OF THE TOWN OF DUXBURY, MASS., June 17, 1887. By JUSTIN WINSOR. CAMBRIDGE: JOHN WILSON AND SON. SSnitjersitg yrrss. 1.SH7. Tivo liundred copies iwivatdy 'printed. ADDRESS. I PRAY you let the dissolving view of another scene * than this come to your inner vision. Picture your- selves at the doorstone of Miles Standish in the declining hours of a day in June, two centuries and a half ago. Gaze attentively upon the knots of people looking out upon the placid waters of yonder bay, and turning their eyes upon a mellowing sky beyond the Kingston Hills. You can hardly mistake the master of the house. His three-and-fiTty years have left some, if not heavy, marks upon a frame that in his j^ounger days had borne the severities of campaigns in regular armies, and in his sterner manhood had endured the rigors of the wilder- ness. But you can see that his face still has the volatile lines which mark a nature quick in passion. His eye has still the alertness and his motions the rapidity of those earlier days when he fought in Flanders, and of the later ones when he braved the braggart Pecksuot in the cabin at Wessagusset, or quelled by his daring the revolt of Corbitant. We know by the inventory of his books tliat " " the Commentaries of Caesar was a household volume ; and we may well conjecture how, with his children and Hobamok looking on, he could trace upon the sand, and place pebbles to mark, the marches and camps of the Roman Legions in Gaul. -

My object in bringing this work before the public is not only to show that I am a lineal descendant, in the seventh generation, from the great and good Massasoit, whom both the red and white man now venerate and honor, but also to make record of the wrongs which during all these generations have been endured by my race.
